Nail Knot
NrthFrk
It sounds like you nail knot spectra to your fly line? If that is what you are doing, I wouldn't recommend it. Trey Coombs has a section in his book on Bluewater Flyfishing on connecting spectra to line and backing. I have used an albright to connect spectra to dacron and then made a blind splice loop in the dacron. It works great.
I like Per's idea of 50 yd of dacron in front of the spectra to protect the hands and take some of the abuse from rocks.
