Switched back to Yozuri Hybrid from braid to save the skin on my hands. Don't need gloves anymore, though heavier jigs are tougher to retrieve with the Hybrid line.
I met my current wife in October about 5 or 6 years ago.
My hands looked like I had leprosy, had to hide them from her...all from no gloves, braid and lots of fish... She fell in love with me anyway...must have been the braces
