    Re: Braid on Spinning Gear?

    A lot of reel manufacturer's are coming out with spinning reel spools made for superlines.. i.e. abu garcia's new soron series... like said before if you don't have a superline spool, use tape or wind up with some mono first... Winding up with mono first is a good idea anyways since superlines are costly. Advantages of braid are many... and for me and many others... braid seems to work better and cast better after its been used a while. When that coating wears off and its stretched a bit it seems to cast limper. Also for cutting purposes I keep a pair of high quality small nail clippers handy. Maybe tommorow your wife girlfriend will be missing hers:-)
    Personally I don't use braid a lot... I have an issue with its looks lol.. and I don't much care for black fingers. In all applications except for topwater fishing I use flourocarbon. And of course for topwater I use monofilament. Happen to be a berkley man myself and would suggest fireline as a premium superline choice.

    Re: Braid on Spinning Gear?

    I have a confession to make, the trouties would flog me for, sometimes when I'm fishing around Polka's home turf I encounter a good deal of sauger which shred fine tippet. I use the neon green fireline for a tippet! Smallies don't care and sauger don't steal my flies.
