Water knot for me too.
Which stub do you tie the fly to? They say the stub pointing to the point fly is the stronger of the two but I've used both and never noticed a real difference (although the stub pointing to the rod tip presents the fly a little better).

the tag pointing to the fly is the one to use also if you make the leader tapered then the tag pointing to the fly will be the heavier breaking strain  |
