What line can I use to attach my bolt snap?

[jtsma]

I have my light tied to a bolt snap using some of the leftover from my DSMB spool. However the line is quite slippery and it is prone to coming undone. I've superglued the knot and melted the ends so it holds but it's not ideal. Does anyone have a recommendation for what I could use that will not come undone so easily?

Thanks!

I’ve never had a knot in cave line come undone after a drop of Superglue.

How are you tying it? There's a specific way to tie bolt snaps to things using cave line, and if you do it right they shouldn't come undone even without superglue (I just trim and burn the ends). There's some good videos on Youtube you can check out.

No super glue for me, either. This is a good overview video, although he does tie the final knot wrong. Use a proper square/reef knot (reversing the direction in the second step, e.g., left over right, then right over left), not the granny knot version depicted.
