Even VMC's will crap out...

I've broken VMC 4x permasteels as well as Siwashes. When fishing with a tight drag, and virtually no-strech lines, things tend to break...

Maybe its time to go back to mono.

The ever wise Nebe-Eben-ocrates famously quoted after dropping several fish one night....

Braid is great for hooking fish, mono is great for landing fish...
