It's more expensive but worth it in the long run. The stuff lasts a lot longer than mono and you won't have to change your line as much. Some guys use the same line for a year or two. It's popular to reverse the line at the end of a season to extend its life.

Don't worry if the braid gets a bit frayed and gets a little 'fuzzy.' It is still fishable and strong. The outside filaments may be cut but the core is still intact. With mono, you get a nick like that and it's all over. Of course if you get major fraying then please cut back and retie.

Lookin for my big'un!
