best you learn some proper knots then S.T.
but since you know everything ????
usually you have 3 knots even before the backing i.e. using a flasher . hook to swivel (leader). flasher to mainline.
you could be correct if the user was running a mono top shot to braid then. possible but most user's running braid with mono topshot have done there homework.
but thanks to your wonderful insight ...
i for one never seen or heard of a fish take off 300yds plus of mono get into say 150 yds of 30lb flyline backing and then have that fail.
maybe it was a seal?
even then if you think your getting spooled . get the boat in gear .
Unless your doubled up on 60’s going the opposite direction you should never have anywhere near that amount of line out get on top of your fishAgree. Have backing on all my MR3's and a properly tied blood knot will hold before the mono breaks before the knot. Put it in a vice and try it. Have done it lot's of times...
Yes exactly. Have never seen the backing come out on any of my reels ever.Unless your doubled up on 60’s going the opposite direction you should never have anywhere near that amount of line out get on top of your fish

the plus advantage that you fail to mention is that.
when the flyline backing starts to show through its time to close the distance and the fish is on to much of a long line ...
no probs if your out on your own with no others around .
but could prove a problem if your in a pack .
Ah nothing like a 6 oz weight with a large cut plug getting vacuumed up by a big Rivers king and watching it run down deep until you get into your backing. Stressful until you can get some of the line back on the reel.Guess you never fished Rivers eh
