Any experience with these? I got some samples and they seem to be strong but I keep wrapping the line the wrong way and redoing it 2-3 times. By the time I get it on, I could have tied 3 Palomar's! :rolleyes:
I tried some out over the past week at Lake Powell, just for kicks. I was 50-50 on them. The knot (er... wrap?) never broke while fishing. However, I got caught on rocks/weeds twice with them, and I had the hook unwrap itself after using not-so-gentle persuasion.
So, I don't know. The line normally would have snapped at how hard I was pulling, but instead it unraveled after getting past the normal line breaking point. Take the review for what it's worth. Just my experience so far. Sticking to knots for now.
