re: Flouro just sucks

I strung my new spinning reel with some 20lb or 30lb Daiwa Samurai Braid (I bought some power pro, but it was too small for my liking and Daiwa was all they had at the marina in braid)...I like the stuff. Never really messed with fluoro...but as far as braid vs. mono, give me the braid.

I find it has far less memory than mono

If you're finding line jump off your spinning reel you have way too much line on there.

In my experience floro comes with a certain amount of memory although mininal where as monofilament develops memory in the heat. The developed memory is generally much worse.
Honestly with the problems you are having I would guess it was an overfilled spool or was put on with incorrect twist. You could have also developed line twist from a rotating lure. Both can be fixed.

I've thought about it some more and concluded that flouro is pretty much superior to braid and mono in every conceivable way.

So we should just turn this into a delete thread?
Posted on 6/11/12 at 9:43 pm to AlxTgr
i don't use anything but power pro
Posted on 6/11/12 at 9:44 pm to DownshiftAndFloorIt
Only if I get the good side.
Posted on 6/11/12 at 9:45 pm to AlxTgr
Doesn't matter. You're gonna be wrong either way
