Not a problem if you're throwing big streamers and poppers, but I suspect smaller flies drift more naturally with extremely flexible mono. Could be wrong about that, but that's my gut feeling.Tyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04510262829834562239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8518971929369280752.post-89871110433762755812011-10-11T19:04:27.779-04:002011-10-11T19:04:27.779-04:00Me too!

I started using the carbon because I kept breaking off on some really good fish with the traditional leaders?tippets, so I decided to go carbon to help eliminate break offs.
