Fir heavy mono i find i must wet the line to tighten the knots or the material will grab and thin the line rather than tighten up.

as i have said to her many times....just spit on it!

Either that or tie up your preferred knot, tighten it down just enough so it doesn't unravel, then drop the hook/lure/rig into the water to wet it, then pull it out and lock it down.
This stuff really is 101, but lots of people %$%$%$%$ it up.

It's not the bait
At the end of your line
It's the fishing hole
Where all the fish is blind
