I made the switch from mono to braid on 2 of my 3 fishing rods 2 years ago. (I left the mono on the one because my son doesn't like braided line, says it's too thin for him to see lol)
How often should I change the braid line? With mono I used to change the line almost religiously every year depending on how often the rod would get used, but I was told with braid, if it's not frayed, there is no need to change it every year, so since it hasn't been frayed, I haven't changed it since I put it on those 2 reels. So when should I consider changing it? Remember, most of my fishing is done from the pier in Pt Bruce and although I'm used to the braid now, (took a while) I still consider myself to be learning about the complexities of braided line. Thanks in advance.
