Braid For Spinner Baits?

[clayton86]

I know there's a lot of guys who use braid for everything and some who are 50/50 with it. Who uses it with spinners or would flouro or mono be a better choice. What knot do you use if you use braid on a spinner I usually use a palomar knot on everything besides spinners where I use a improved cinch knot but they tend to slip with braid iv found. Im gonna be throwing it on a 6'9"MHF veritas with a revo s.

I got bored on shift and had nothing but BPS catalogs and put together a big long list of rod and reel combos and wish list of baits and tackle lol. 1 rod and reel combo a month till im home and i'll be all set haha im going all veritas and revo's I already have 1 revo/veritas combo and love it.

I use 50# Spiderwire Stealth. I prefer the stiffness it has over the more flexible brands. Easier to un-do a semi-professional over-run. Spinnerbaits, Chatterbaits, and buzz baits.

I use the Uni-knot.

I have several reels with it and have uet to decide whether or not I like it I use 50 lb PP. However i also use a mono leader. The leader is joined with a modified albright and then mono to spinner with improved clinch. However if I do go with the just the braid I use a palomer knot. It has never let me down.

I use it with spinners. I guess the primary pro to it is you really feel the fish smack the bait, the downside is I lose more baits to pike using braid than anything else. Anymore, I am rarely pulling baits through trees or anything like that, so if you are doing those things alot I think the abrasion resistance might also be a con, but for weeds its great. Never have a problem with hook-ups, either.

I tried it and went back to my old reliable 17lb mono for spinnerbaits. Maybe it is me, but I have better accuracy with mono.

A light braid like 30# Spiderwire would be good for spinnerbaits. I wouldnt go any bigger than that. My next setup will be a Chronarch 50E with 30# Spiderwire for those spinnerbaits.

I use 50lb PP on spinnerbaits unless I'm in really clear water...then I'll tie on a leader. I use a palomar knot. Never have problems losing fish or missing strikes.

I stick to 15# mono for spinnerbaits

I fish it for smallies and largies.

I like the shock absorption on mono (the rare time I like the stretch)
