    Re: Braided Line on Spinning Reels

    I use braid on my spinning reels as well with a 6' floro leader like others. It’s very important to use mono to attach to the reel though with spinning, you need to put about 8-10 ft of mono on, then braid just as if it were a leader on the other end. The braid is much slicker than mono and it can spin on the reel.
    With braid the sensitivity is very good and you can get much more line on the reel for same strength plus it casts good.
    I posted earlier on a separate post about the Power Pro Super 8 Slick it works very well on a spinning rod. It has not been out long but I like it much better than all other braids. If you are thinking of getting braid I highly recommend it. Not the standard power pro, the Super 8 Slick by Power Pro.

    Thanks for the responses, guys, very good info. I think I'll load up and give it a try next time I'm out.

    Re: Braided Line on Spinning Reels

    You will be surprised at the feel you will have now. I like to get feedback from my lures and braid will give you the feel you'll need. Be careful setting the hook. I broke a spinning rod this last summer on a hook set. Make sure your drag is set lite.
