I drank the braid koolaid years ago.
Have since switched back to mono with the exception of two applications, now I just occasionally sip the koolaid.
Tieing knots to join braid to mono with one hand is a pure exercise of agony. Tieing these knots in my boat with waves and wind makes a rectum examination by a doctor with a massive hangnail feel like a day at the beach.
First application is on a walleye pole/baitcaster reel with a flippin' switch, LOVE it. The braid instantly let's me not only detect a bite but I can tell if I am in mud,rocks, or sand.
Second is on a pole I keep for long distance sneak attacks. It is spooled with 4 lb Nanofil.
I think I actually cast across Deer Creek one day and snagged the Heber Creeper....
