Default Braided line

One thing I don't like about braided line is that my knot pulls through and comes untied fairly often. I use a palomar knot. Any suggestions?

Try leaving a longer tag end.

Never have this kind problem! I mean no matter how short I cut. You probably did something wrong somehow.

Any way, what kind braided line did you use?

Curado-if it persists try putting a drop of super glue on it. I guarantee they won't slip then !

Hey bud dont know if you smoke but I have found on ANY braided line if I take and just touch the tag end of the line after cutting it fairly short the knot has NEVER come unbuttoned. Just a little tip.

It's a great idea. Never think about in this way.
