How is the hook tied on? Is it snelled, or a palomar, hard to tell from photo. If it is snelled the line is going through the hook eye from the wrong side. The line needs to come through from top and be inline with hook shank. Also your dropper loop looks like it needs a little help. The three wraps on either side of loop should lay flat and not overwrap. With the line laying over itself you greatly reduce the knot strength. Sorry if this sounds a little harsh, but you asked.
