yes - that's correct the OTI 60 lb line is breaking at 35 - 40 lbs as measured on a drag scale - I actually stumbled on to the problem when I was showing a friend how to join fluoro to OTI braid - I tied up my favorite Yucatan knot and we put a scale on it to demo how strong the knot was and to my surprise it broke at 35 lbs - I subsequently tried the other knots listed with the same results
