For a budget friendly braid and pretty decent is the Kast King Super Power Color Shield. I use braid on my spinning gear with FC leader. Also BFS guys are using braid because of the smaller line diameter. Either you love braid or hate it.

I been using hybrid ceramics from the JZN store on Aliexpress. Haven't had any issues. I usually just replace the spool bearings and if there is a bearing in the spool tensioner. Also check Spool Speed Bearings they have the bearings with fast shipping. They have everything you need to change the bearings.

Thanks for the heads up.

For distance you will need at least an 8 carrier, for heavy cover at least a 4 carrier. Think of it this way 4 carrier as off road tire and 8 carrier as a street or highway tire. I been using the KK brand of braid. Their best one is the Hammer braid
