I think that might be your problem. The Palomar and Trilene Knot use a double loop of line around the clip. With the V one loop will sit in the groove, the other above it, and pinch down on it under load. My problem was with the small clips.

30 or 50 pound Ande floro tied with a palamor on the business end and a Spro on the other also with a palamor.Rock solid leader.

When you say TA clip I'm assuming you mean a Breakaway?

I'm not sure what the difference is but the way I look at it, I never had a problem with Breakaways so I will keep using them, but other than a different bend in some places I see no difference
