Just to stick my 2 penneth in.....
Love fishing on braid but went back to mono for two reasons.....
A. Most of the waters round my area are banning braid rightly or wrongly, this applies to mainline and hook links
B. I love fishing the method, and i found that when fishing with a braided mainline, the force excerted when you had a "good un" on meant that even brushing over a stone would cut me off like a knife through butter. Lost 2-3 like this so i switched back.
Only whinge about mono is the elastic band feeling when you try and strike anything past about 60 feet!
