I've experienced the same thing....I tie the palomar differently when using flouro and low lb test mono.

Most guys tie the overhand portion of the knot, cinch it down, loop the hook through , then...

Sometimes pulling the line between the first and second rod eyelet to load the rod, and quickly releasing it will throw a bunch of slack down to the jig and pop it off. Otherwise, you just have to...

Use a paper clip to push it back out...It's a little easier a couple days later after the tooth pick dries out and shrinks.

I've had the same experience with the 14lb test. Works great as long as you take reasonable care of it. I buy the 2000 yard spools for $60. I can keep it fresh at that price.

My G-Loomis' will have to be pried out of my cold dead hands...With my surgically reconstructed wrist and they allow me to fish longer and harder. I own 11 of them plus one custom made Flippin stick...

Original Chronarch. Only weighs 7.9 Ounces, reliable, great casting with smooth and tough gears. I think Shimano made a mistake replacing this reel with that new 270 dollar 9 ounce tank.

Plus...

I'm a diehard Shimano guy and have lot's of Curados and japanese Scorpions. My favorite has to be the regular old Chronarch. Nice and light at under 8 ounces, baby butt smooth, with the guts to...
