im going to put spiderwire on my reel, should i put a little monofilament on there as well?

Question

i read on basspro.com that when your using braided line, that you should tie some monofilament on there as well for smooth casting.

what does this mean? where do i tie the monofilament too, the reel, or the end of the braided line?

Answer 1

The only thing I can come up with is backing, which is line (monofilent or?) that is put on before your braided line or usin' as a leader. Now where that make it a smoother cast I do not know. What type reel are ya' usin', level-wind (baitcaster) or spinning. The only time I use braided line is on my level-wind reels with top water lures (it floats) and is STRONG for when your in brush etc..

Answer 2

tie it to the reel use a palomar knot for the end of the braid

Answer 3

yea
