Fishing Victoria Forum

I do exactly this as well, easy and convenient.

Tell me guys...apart from fly-fishing, why the hell does anyone use this stuff? fly fishing would be hard with braid as the weight is in the line not what your casting lol. cheap braid seems to have more problems but sometimes some cheaper braid is ok Fly reels use braid for backing before the fly ...

I used to just use it on lighter gear for flicking lures and plastics but now I have it on ...
