Thread: Braid opinions/suggestions

I'm not unfamiliar with braid as I have tried most of the brands over the years. It is not a favorite line as the only two I have liked is Suffix (original braid) and Power Pro. I normally prefer mono or flouro. However, after hearing all the hoopla about Bonehead braid I ordered a spool for my own testing. It didn't make it in until this afternoon's mail so I didn't have it when I went to Blackwell today. I did take some Power Pro Super 8 Slick to do some comparison against mono and flouro (but that's another story.)

My question is how much braid should I/or would you recommend putting on reels that will be used strictly for jigging? The bonehead braid is in a 150 yard spool. I was thinking of splitting it onto two reels for testing purposes but now think I might do three. 50 yards is a lot of line for vertical jigging and. that way, I could use it on three different rods. If I like it I will buy more. If not, I'll move on. So suggestions or thoughts - is 50 yards enough?
