Thanks guys - I thought it sounded fishy, but it came from what I thought was a good source. I had been using it that way and continue to do so (mainly cause I'm cheap and spent a bundle on 2 spools of 5x and 6x Fluorocarbon).

Ray - I can't believe I've been wetting my knots by putting them in my mouth (against my better judgement) while standing waist deep in water. Sometimes I can't see the forest for the trees.
