I'm curious. Why are you so opposed to braid? Seriously. A premium coated braid is a very good all around line. Especially when used in conjuction with a fluro leader. This is how most of my rods are spooled. I'm like you. All my rods/reels are spinning. I also can't cast a bait caster to save my life and don't see the need to switch from what works for me and that said, I do plan on spooling up my topwater rod with mono this year for specks but will continue to keep 20pound Spectra coated braid on the majority of my rods. I also spool up 20pound Trileen Big Game on my guest rods and my youngest sons rod because it is more forgiving. But for the majority of my use I like the sensitivity, casting ability, strength and logivity of braid for the majority of my needs. Have you ever tried braid?
