Yes I know pike will vaporize me in no time! I might go back to braid but need to learn those knots! Good word about reeling lighter baits on a slack line!!! As I was reeling in my senko drop shot rig I wasn’t having any trouble casting so far

That’s what I use the fishing for…..

Still need the Paliperidone for when I get home. ?

 

 

 

I don't think the problem is the line but the way you are transporting your rod. The same would happen with mono or fluoro, it's just a little easier to pick out when it happens. If it was me, I would put my focus into finding a better way to transport the rod because I like how braid handles on spinning gear - might be as simple as making sure the lure is secured tightly and getting a rod sock.
