Re: First braid line I used.
Make sure you flip the bail arm over by hand and give the braid a gentle tug before reeling in to make sure its tight. This should help out with wind knots.

Re: First braid line I used.
Best advice is not to "reel reel reel" when u hook into a fish, set ur drag up and play fish off the drag or alternatively, backwind if the fish runs......if ur drag is loose, control it with ur index finger to slow fish down.....but DONT "reel reel reel"......odds on to pull out of a good fish 
enjoy the session

Re: First braid line I used.
Ah lads. 
DISASTER.
1. Forgot to pack my good lure
2. Wind in town fine. Hurricane where we went
3. Weed weed weed weed weed weed.
4. More f@@king weed
5. High waves
Ah well beats the s@@t out of staring at eastenders or coronation street any day.
1 good point was the braid.
Blown away by the way it runs from line and you feel everything going on with it.
And the distance from a light lure.
As arnie said.
I'll be back.

Re: First braid line I used.
Not a wasted trip, next time bring some sluggo to fish when it's weedy, don't bother with anything else as they won't work in the weed, fish the sluggo weedless and at a snails pace.
