1. Saw some people did not use braided except on a spinning reel. What is the reasoning
2. I tried the leaders and barrell swivels before and had an issue when trying to slow walk a top water with the swivel sinking and messing up the rhythm. Anyone else have this problem.
3. Lastly, where did you find the speed clips with the swivel on them?

Not trying to hijack the thread, just curious.

thanks,
A lot of folks have problems running braid in the baitcasters because of the nasty backlashes that can occur. As I stated earlier, this happened to me a few times, but has not been an issue in a while. Braided line does not twist as much as mono or flouro so it is perfect for spinning gear. I have some braid on a spinning rod that is over a year and a half old and is still great.
