[QUOTE="KMixson, post: 439705, member: 432"] I tried some braid on a closed face reel I have. It kind of sorta worked. It would reel in if you kept tension on the line. Any slack in the line and it would unreel since it is much thinner than mono. The pin on the reel that engages the line does not actually touch the the wall of the outer shell. Being so thin the line would fit between the pin and the outer shell. After casting if you didn't have tension on the line you would be cranking the handle and the pin would not catch the line to reel it in. You could give the rod a quick jerk to catch the pin and then reel it in. [/QUOTE]
