What's the best knot to attach a furled leader to this:
I'm taking a Tenkara el cheapo knock off to mess with as a proof-of-concept. I have no illusions of quality, but I have it in hand so I want to play with it before ordering a real Tenkara rod.I'm trying to avoid sending everything – line & fly – into the stream. Best knot?

I dug a little deeper on the site and found their solution. Simple enough. I guess it must be secure enough for them. I'll give it a try!
Thanks again.
