All of the pressure in your experiment is on the spectra, not the flouro.

I've heard people talk crap on Power Pro (power pop as some refer to it), but I've never had a failure with my two year old 65 lb Power Pro, works for me. Especially if it tested out on the scale at the shop, end of story.
You have a point.
Just for the hell of it, tomorrow I will tie the Power pro to the left over stretched out mono I used in my test to see what happens.

Its clear Ande Mono I tested.
I just noticed the seaguar floro label in the pic, but that was used for a few leaders I was mocking up earlier.
