A bit off topic but do the other members think that the ultra thin braid for hook links will end up causing more damage to fish? I can see it acting like a chesse wire, this is why my choice for a bag rig would be merlin

 

Andy,

 

I'm sure I mentioned it in the past, but I think some braids just aren't suitable for hooklinks. While Kryston SuperSilk is very fine, I think it is probably a bit like you say cheese wire. Many of the lower breaking strain braids I think are too much of a risk, Drennan Super Specialist, even the low BS Merlin, Silkworm and definitely a 'mainline' braid.

 

I've split this down into a separate topic :wink:
