One of the best tips i picked up along the way abut braid is this.. make sure to follow your plug out with the tip of your rod, so as it splashes down, your tip is down. This will help you get an extra foot or 3 on the cast as well. Once the plug splashes, flip the bail, lift the tip to 11:00 then reel in a few cranks.. this will take any slack out of the spool that would turn into a wind knot on the next cast. reeling in line under very little tension is the culprit with knots 90% of the time when I fish... dont know about anyone else.
