I bet if he ties on your hook with the line he is using, it will break off
also. Sounds like crap line. Either old, or bad batch. I dropshot a lot
with a 6# line and a spinning rod. No brake offs. I use mostly Trilene, or
P-line in mono.

I have been having break offs where I tie the hook on with a palomar
knot.

This has never been a problem with this new hook
