I am tying knots religiously accurately. I am moisturizing them plenty pull slow and watching how knot tying accurately. No overlaps or kinks. Test where repeated multiple times and results averaged. Spring scale is calibrated. I think that FC really weaker then stated. Especially numbers over #20. Just not too much people making tests. For them it is enough that big fish was landed. So, the line is OK. If not - there are a lot of excuses: knots, brakes etc...
I would like to remind kindly: initial question was about pink FC.
Very interesting discussion about that matter:
