Good job getting out there. Loosing the fish is a drag but you are in the game. Having the line break at the knot sucks. I've been quilty of failed knots too but I try to keep things as clean and sano as possible, especially when I'm basicly fishing for one good bite from a big fish. Fluoro ties differently than mono and is more prone to heat damage when you cinch the knot down. Keep the knot wet or use the old stand by, spit. Spectra vexed me for a while but I practiced my knots at home and feel comfortable with it now. When in doubt of the quality of any knot I always cut and retie. You can bump up your line size from 25 to 30or even 40. Mike
