Why You Should Switch to Braid on Spinning Reels

Why You Should Switch to Braid on Spinning Reels

There's been a huge shift away from fishing exclusively fluorocarbon or monofilament on spinning reels. Instead, most pros are spooling up with braid as the mainline, with a fluorocarbon leader attached using a line-to-line knot like the Modified Albright (http://goo.gl/WWHRXK). The reasons are many, ranging from better handling, durability, low cost due to durability, sensitivity, and toughness. Matt Lee takes his preference for braid a step further by recommending the use of a bright colored variety, which allows you to see bites you may not feel. A long shank of fluorocarbon provides the performance attributes of both lines but requires using a tried and true line-to-line knot as expertly demonstrated by Matt in this video: How to Tie the Modified Albright Knot (http://goo.gl/WWHRXK).
