i totaly agree about fishing with a drop off lead system . Thanks for all/any advise.

Thanks lads for clearing up a few things

As for using braided mainline ive heard this before is this used for mainly cutting through the weed? i see in this weeks carptalk that barry& ben Oconnor have been out there lately and there using Gardner hydro TUFF as mainline .
