    I just wrap the braid around my reel handle when hung up. I tie straight to jig in clear or dirty water. Have been using as my main line for 8 years now or so. If I’m not using braid I’m using gamma.

    Update,
    Yesterday Started using Strike king hi vis braid 65lb test with a 10 lb leader. ( Alberto knot)
    It’s working great for pitching to cover
    It’s just stiff enough it doesn’t tangle much in the wind. No memory and awesome hook sets. I need to be careful, almost straightened the on a big male.

    A conservative drag setting can be your friend with braid
    The love for fishing is one of the best gifts you can pass along

    Absolutely, majority of the time. but I’m currently fishing very heavy cover around live trees. The big ones have to be quickly muscled out or they tangle and I say bad words…

    Certainly understandable. I fish under docks alot. All manner of things to be tangled and wrapped up on
