Not interested in a uni knot test as it is too bulky to use.

mate ive been running FG on every single line i use from 3lb leader to 200lb leaders and it is 100% stronger than anyother knots ive tried ..

i did some straight line pulls but i cant find where i put the picks of the scales.

Those who say FG is a waste of time , or not worth it .. You need to beleive me when i say your wrong . The confidence you get out of knowing your knots are going to stand up to the LB rating on your leader 3 , 4 , 6 , 8 , 200lb has meant i can go really , really hard on bigger fish in tight structure on light lines .. No more nanna drags ..

done properly FG lets me go harder on fish , like there was no connection point at all . like your able to do on straight through ..
