I thought it was just me with braid. I could hear it sanding on my rod tip when I cast and set the hook. BUT that Power Pro super slick 8# on jig pole with a Solo reel. Worth every bit of the detriment to the eyes.
If you wanna test a good cheap mono line try Berkeley Trilene Sensation in a hivis color.
