Default Superlines snapping

What knot are you tying?

om...
I thought my search for the "vonderline" was over. I put some Stren on and
it performed very well. ....Until yesterday when the specter of ALL prior
superlines came back.

I usually cast a long way with a very strong "snap" of my wrist. It is
necessary here on the TX Gulf coast and beside, I like it! Yesterday, I
SNAPPED a spinnerbait right off of the line.

Over the years, I've lost more lures during casting with ANY superline

then
I ever lost with any mono. I know that mono gives me some stretch, so my

big
SNAP cast (when I get a backlash) doesn't always break off.

Am I the only guy with this complaint about Superlines? I'm using 30 lb

with
8 lb diameter. I usually use ten pound mono???
Thanks ,
