When do you replace your braid? - Kayak Fishing Adventures on Big Water’s Edge

I never run straight braid rocks or n sharp teeth will go right through it.. run a 4 to 8 foot fluorocarbon leader and then you have an awesome set up. The no stretch in the braid is awesome and the fluorocarbon leader can take abuse. Just like with mono you can see if the flouro needs replacing... my set up is 30lb braid 20lb flouro. And 50lb braid 30lb flouro. I never lose fish to break offs
