JDB Braid
« on: December 10, 2014, 08:21:45 AM »
Hi All
I am looking at putting JDB braid on my new Saragosa 20000   :cg: . But before I do that I would like to hear what you all think about the braid. Thanks

Its good braid. but also a bit thick. Have a look at the HMP 8x casting braid.

I fish compo so don't want to go to thick. I am using the HMP for leader and I really like it. The JDB 50 pound is .27 and the Gator is .21

if you want to you could put gosen braid on but it is pricey. Then again, with a reel like that you want to put good braid on it. Its like having a c63 amg and wanting to put Eco friendly fuel saver tires on it

That was funny Shivaan, but true. I heard that Barry's son is using the JDB braid, so would believe it will be good.

Anything the Warehams use turns to gold  :hehe: . I do believe that if Barry has it on his shelves, it is good.
