As you’ll see, the “Improved Albright Knot” is fairly easy to tie and results in a very small fishing knot that can easily be reeled up into your rod’s guides without much friction.

In the preliminary testing as part of a comprehensive knot strength analysis experiment, it is scoring well in regards to its pull strength and ease of tying.
