Went out today to wet a line. First time in over a year that I tried
Mono
on
any of my reels. I have been using Braid for the past two years My
Calcutta
thought it was spring, and promptly built a birdsnest on every third
cast
with 12lb line. "Oh no!!" I said. I can't cast mono worth a darn
anymore.
Looks like braid and I have a permanent relationship from now on.
Goodbye
mono. Hello braided line and fluorocarbon leaders.

Trust me, I tried and tried to get that mono to perform properly for
three
hours to no avail. Now I can get the foolish thought of using mono for
top
waters and cranks out of my head. I guess I will have to use a
fiberglass
rod to handle those tasks from now on. Been looking at the St. Croix
Glass
Pro any thoughts? Anyone use one of these light weight wonders of modern
science.

They're a fine blank. I've built several crankbait rods with the St.
Croix
glass blank and the people that are using them think the rods are great.
