i don't know about the squid braid or the rods,
but about the knots
if you are worried about tying an allbright, a double uni-knot will finish with the tag end facing toward the reel
it will cast well but it is a 'lumpy knot'
the allbright is the best for casting as it is a smooth knot and if tied well can be trimmed back hard against the knot itself
however if not tied right it will just undo itself when trimmed short
both knots are basically twice the thickness of the mono
