Is it an Albright or Alberto Knot? That is what I use to attach braid to mono (or fluorocarbon).
If you are talking about joining mono to mono then perhaps you are referring to a Blood Knot (that is what I use for that situation).
I've never seen that one but I like it. Thanks for sharingI don't know what knot you are describing but this video on the GT Knot popped up in my Youtube feed last year and I have been using it ever since.
Easiest to tie and has not failed me yet.

I have not heard of the GT knot. I will have to give that a try. I don't use the FG because I find it just too hard to tie with lighter lines (10lb braid to 8 or 10 lb fluorcarbon). That is why I use the Alberto. I have not had that know fail and it is really easy to tie. The GT looks really easy as well.
Thanks for posting that!
I tie the FG knot when I’m prepping the rods at home. Usually takes multiple tries but is so worth it when one seats nicely. Far superior to cast than any other I’ve found.
but... to your point, I double uni on the water. Faster and works fine for a day if I lose my original leader on my metal rod.
