[QUOTE="Mr. Stevenson, post: 309621, member: 7414"] I forgot to mention this: I'm a die hard braid/artificial guy. One reason is line twist. I could GAF about mono, Fireline, etc: I'm starting to think about fluorocarbon leaders. One night in the kitchen with beer on the right and a bucket of frozen fish on the left; I filled the sink and began to dick around with a Rap. I discovered it twisted the hell out of the line and would untwist when held still. This worried me at the time as my reels served double duty. Now I know twist doesn't really MAF with braid. So here you go: The next and last time I went on the ice; I jigged like normal and caught the Big Three on Darling (Grano). Thing is--[B]all [/B]strikes occurred when I was letting the lure spin on deadstick. NO head, eyes, guts etc, This is also when I learned pike cut braid like though Kleenex. I still recommend some sort of hook modification. These deals suck with retention. [/QUOTE]
