My loop to loop connector on my Sink-6 fly line has broken. Is there any problem with cutting this off and doing a nail not for my leaders? Just worried about the integrity of the line. I've only had it for less than a year so I might be able to send it in?

Just snip of the end and tie a nail knot. It will be fine.
I don’t think nail knots are recommended on fly line. You could look into a flyline loop-welder kit, I’ve heard those work just fine.
I would cut and whip a new loop with 40-50lb mono and a nail knot, from there you can do what you’ve been doing with no problem
Just cut the loop off and tie the leader on with a nail knot

Thanks all for the advice. I’ll snip and do a nail to loop mono section.
