big fish
#10
It's not the knot holding your backing to the reel, it's the knot holding fly line to backing. Two different kinds of material. I put a dab of Zap-A-Gap on the knot and pray that, that is enuff. While fishing at Hebgen this year my fly got caught on an underwater tree (those of you who have fished there, know what I am talking about) and I kept pullin the line trying to break the tippet and the fly line broke in half and it was new line (Orvis clear intermediate for inquiring minds). Also a associate was fishing Alaska with a multi tip line, hooked a salmon and line to backing broke, by, by $129.00 line)
I say if you can run like h$#&ll safetly and keep that fish from hitting backing, GO FOR IT!
