The mono is more forgiven you backlash its easy to pick out. Yes braid is thinner and sensitive but harder to cast with. Now you can trick up your reel with all the gizmo's and match up an Arra rod and be king of the beach but will it help you catch fish... maybe but hook a fish at the end of your cast, you will have a hard time landing it. Most of the guys that are into tourny distance casting have the gear just for that and don't fish with it. If you want to add distance to your existing or want to upgrade get ahold of Big Dave or Ron Arra. Oh and like Saltheart said take all your brakes out, educate the thumb, thumb your side plate NOT your line, practice...
