Plus being so much thinner for its breaking strain it also means you can run stronger line and still fit more on your spool.īraid also offers high sensitivity and combined with a graphite rod means you can feel exactly what’s happing with your bait, jig, lure or plastic. It's chalk and cheese between the two and it will elevate your casting distance and control to a whole new level. Because it’s much more supple and so much thinner for its breaking strain one of the most obvious, important and significant differences between the two is in casting. It may not look like it but braid is very, very strong for its diameter. So, let’s take a look at some of the advantages and disadvantages of braid when compared to mono. Braid is more commonly rated in PE instead of pounds which can be a little confusing at first since each brand does it their own way but basically it has more to do with the thickness of the braid then its breaking strain. I didn’t try braid till I was in my 20s but since then I haven’t looked back and now each and every reel I own is loaded with Daiwa Saltiga 12 or J-Braid.īraided fishing lines are exactly that, multiple thinner fibres braided together. The number of fibres is normally X4 or X8 but can go much higher, the higher the number of fibres the smoother and stronger the braid becomes. Braided fishing lines or braid/PE have been a game changer for me. ![]() In today’s fishing world we have more of a choice. I remember the mess it used to make when I was young trying to use a baitcaster or if I opened the bail arm on the spinning reel without holding the line in place it would grow a mind of its own and tangle into mess and ruin dad’s day! ![]()
