There are guys here who know Mike better then me (PeteG...) but all I can say from my conversations with him is that he is straight shooter full of knowledge and always has a smile on his face.

I was thinking the same thing...

Anyway, I really like Yo Hybrid. Started using it a few years ago in 30# on my conventionals. Super durable and cast pretty well. Lots of guys think it is too stiff, but I'll deal with that to not loose a good fish in the rocks. The only reason I started to look for a replacement for it is that it is hard to score locally. I spooled up some 20# back country to try on my smaller conventionals this year. It seems good so far, but I have only used it to test cast some plugs and a new rod I wrapped.

I use braid on my spinners and mono on all but my jigging conventionals. Just how I like to fish. They each have there place in certain situations.

I fish the Rocks! I live at & for Montauk & like places! I hate any & all braid-- never touch the stuff! And I don't lack for casting distance, believe me! (Though I feel I need distance only 10% of nights/ situations anyway!). Big Game 20 lb., and 25 lb. on my VS300 for the craggiest spots: never lets me down! (But I'm obsessive about cutting- back & re- spooling-- way more than most! You should be too!

Of course though if I fished the Canal often... or deep- jigged Inlets often, then I'd use braid for that! But I don't-- I'm primarily a plugger... then an Eeler! Mono for me in the surf! Just carry that bulk spool of 20 in the vehicle & use it often! (Hopefully VERY often!

Well at least the last 3 times I saw him, nothing wrong with that
