Braid changed Australian fishing. With almost no stretch and a diameter a fraction of equivalent mono, it gives you direct contact with the lure, far better hooksets at distance, and more line on the spool than you thought possible.
Carrier count is the first decision. Four-carrier braid is tougher and more abrasion-resistant, and it is cheaper — a good choice for heavy cover and beach work. Eight-carrier braid is rounder and smoother, so it casts further and runs quieter through the guides, which is why it dominates lure fishing. Twelve-carrier braids take that further again.
Then breaking strain, which follows the species and the structure rather than the reel. Light braid suits bream, whiting and trout; mid-range covers flathead, snapper, bass and barra; heavy braid is jigging, reef and offshore territory.
Braid needs a leader. It is highly visible and has poor abrasion resistance against structure, so join a fluorocarbon or mono leader with an FG or slim beauty knot. The full fishing line and leader range covers both ends of the setup.
It depends on the job — eight-carrier braid for casting distance and lure work, four-carrier for abrasion resistance around structure and on the beach.
Yes. Braid is visible to fish and cuts easily against rocks, reef and teeth. A fluorocarbon or mono leader solves both problems.
Braid lasts years rather than months. Most anglers reverse the spool to bring the unused half into service before replacing it entirely.
Considerably. Bulk spools cost far less per metre and let you fill several reels or top up through the season.
