[QUOTE="RidgeHunter, post: 730064, member: 4319"] J.P., If I'm readin' ya right, your saying you like the braid for fishing blind, like for bass, etc.? For the sensitivity and transfer and all that. The little time I use a spinning rod for trout (90% of the time I fly fish), I sight fish clear water, like you would with a fly rod, so can generally see anything before I "feel" it. About the only other kind of fishin I do on a regular basis is pond hopping and some stream smallmouth (want to get more into stream smallies, haven't been much), and catfishing, and I just use what the hell ever on cats. I have caught them on thick nylon rope throwlines, so that tells me all I need to know.:D Thus, I just stick to mono on everything I own. Sounds like the braided may be more suited for bass etc. than what I use my ultralights for. (BTW, reeling against the drag is kinda like peein in the wind ain't it? Can't say I've ever had the urge to do that. I do like to yell "Get the water, she's burnin up!" when a fish is taking line. It is all the more funny when everbody looks and you tighten up your drag and land a 10 incher.:)) [/QUOTE]
