Side-by-side for comparison. The fg knot is equally effective in light and heavy set-ups. The key is to tension the knot really well, you want to pull almost to the breaking strain of the braid to ensure you seat the knot properly.
Note the mono tag ends - I was lazy and burnt it with a regular lighter. I'd normally use a bouz to get much closer to the braid, but even with the lazy finish on these knots I'd fish them with confidence.
