*OKAY GUYS, I went to the lake today with my braid-loaded spincast. I was casting a relatively light spinbait, and then a creature-bait. A minnow style, trout colored lifelike swim bait. Both were productive, and I caught 2 5lb LM Bass.
Reel held up great through everything; no hang ups, no pin failure, no reel catching fire (lol). I got home and examined the pin and there is absolutely ZERO wear so far. Line is holding up good as well.
I'm VERY happy, and glad I decided to use this rather than toss it out or sell it. It still casts beautifully, even with light baits/lures, and it retrieves very smoothly.

It's been a little over a month now... how's the braid-on-a-spincast-reel doing? Still no problems or pin wear?
I'm still thinking about trying it (braid) on one of my spincast reels!
