Super Glue and Braid

Featured Replies

Been applying a dab of super glue on my palomar knots. Using it on 30lb power pro to help with any possible slippage. Will this damage my line? Just a thought that I was pondering while driving back down to work.

Thanks.

I do it all the time too. I make sure I wet down all my knots before cinching them tight. But this little extra step gives me peace of mind while fishing the trees and downed timber.

I don't use super glue any more on any knots with braid, I don't use Power Pro either. The only time in the past that I did was to try to prevent the knot from slipping out of the hook eye gap and that didn't prevent it from happening after a few casts.

I use a modified San Diego Jam knot on braid to bait and have never had any slipage.  On braid to fluro leader I use the Alberto's knot.  Neither one on them require any kind of glue.
