So I took my time with the knot and wet it well as I was attaching Flouro to it. Took it out fishing on the long weekend in May and it did cast well. Caught a nice jack and then a nice walleye using my new Live Bait lure. A couple casts later, away went my lure. Nano broke. Retied more flouro and used a slightly different color lure but I did not have the luck with it as the first lure.
Back to Power Pro now.

Does not mean you had a good knot. Also not all super lines are "slick" lines.
When using "slick" lines, you have to be flawless with tying your knots(ok, almost flawless
)
It is also possible the pike damaged the line.
One issue like you had, does not make the product poor.
You see that alot on here. Even by some respected members.
