I really appreciate that wise word brother..I also like little things to remember my friends by..I named that the MTloop..My sons know it by that name now..On every retie today I used it..I found a lure today and tied it on..It looks very nice and i caught fishi in it..It's a pretty blue Shad Rap..the smaller version..Really pretty lure. Blue adn clear actually.

I'm not joking, I couldn't break the line..I was standing up ..and i reeled my rod tip straight down..I was using a spinning reel and you can get those drags only so tight..I grabbed the line with my fist when it started slipping...THAT Palomar knot would not break PERIOD. I had to cut it with dikes..Power Pro is some good stuff man. and this is the 20 pound test...6 pound diameter.
