Why is the Power Pro the problem?

Look up the Alberto Knot on YouTube. It's a variation of the Albright. It's easy to tie and very reliable.

Tie a surgeons knot in the braid to create a loop, but when tying the knot , instead of going thru once go thru four times. The knot will cinch tight with the appearance of a hangmans noose. Once you create the loop attatch the mono with a bristol knot. Very strong knot and easy to tie with cold fingers

I agree Alberto knot all the way! Very easy to tie and very reliable. Just re- spooled two reels with braid and used the Alberto to tie on leaders ... like I said easy to do .. and clean low profile reliable knot!

the New stuff Is absolute crap. If it the braid kinda feels like dental floss Its no good. I dont know what it is But when casted, It will break at any weak spot and when you te a uni to uni it creates weak spots. I had the same porble for A while before I found out what it was.

I tried the modified Albright, which I think is the same thing as the Alberto. I will never tie uni to uni again!
