The reason I use a semetry reel is because of the drag system due to the fact of the no strech. The reason for loosing that fish is due to a pathetic hook set. Ive allready came back to that lake and stuck 2 nice green guys fron the shore. Thanks for the tips fellas. I only use momo for leader material on my braid although I grew up on mono I cannot see myself suing it for anything but leader material mainly for dropshoting and reaction baits.
