[QUOTE="HOUSE, post: 248578, member: 4466"] Yea, Palomar knot is definitely the only way to go for braided line. One thing that may have been already suggested is to check your rod tip for a small knick/cut. I had some braided line snap on me a few times because of a tiny cut in my ceramic rod tip guide that wasn't snapping the mono I had replaced. (I think the knick got there from reeling in lures all the way to my rod tip...tsk tsk!) Here's a picture & video of a palomar knot: [url]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiDDdW22X9k[/url] [img]https://www.eaglespark.com/Knots/palomar.gif[/img] Here's a picture of how I felt after losing $20 in lures: [img]https://coyotes.azvibe.com/images/Homer-Facepalm.jpg[/img] [/QUOTE]
