I hate monofilament!

Braid does seem to last forever...I have a tourny partner that hadnt changed the braid on his jig rod for a few seasons...he also had a few guides that were missing their ceramic....his braid looked like yarn before I could finally convince him to change it.....it still never broke on a fish though.

I am one of the braided faithful. I first started using it on My Cane poles a few years ago and liked it so well I put it on everything else.
