I went offshore with a friend last week who loves braid more then me. He had two 80w tiagra's that had hollow core 130# (PP)and the long heavier leader slides in nice and goes thru the guides like you don't even know it is there. His were made up by fishermen's outfitter I think and they did a nice clean job. The splice is actaully pretty long , didn't measure it but it looked to be a long way up the line.

BTW, next season I am putting braid on my offshore reels, no more mono. MUCH better fighting a fish, no question. I also got to try out a couple new accurate reels...very nice, great smooth drag but I like the feel of the Shimano's better, they have a better ergonomic handle for my liking and when you are fighting a big fish it is more comfortable for a stand up set up IMO.

Avets are the way to go.

+ i dunno how many weeks report.

I LIKE Jerry Brown hollow personally.
More than PP. Way more.

Very very slick, casts like pp, rebuilding topshots is easy to do and it won't chunk your thumb if you like long leaders on convenchs.
