Good for you! I've been fishing for years and don't have any equipment that nice! I'm sure you won't like it though so send it my way and get yourself something really nice!

Go 50# braid. I switched this year to all braid and absolutly love it. Casts really nice, not much if any line twist and nice thing about it. If you get caught up in anything yank on it like an animal and 9 out of 10 times you will get your lure back.

Or break your rod. Or cut your hand.

True... Yank on it like an animal to a certain extent haha. Theres always that point of near breakage of the rod that I just cut it but most times I just rip out limbs of trees or whatever there may be.
