Dear Larry,
New member, old admirer. Great show, love the locations.
I fish for big flatheads in snaggy medium sized rivers. I really like braid/superline for it's small diameter (less water resistance), and especially lack of memory coming off the reel (BIG factor when you need 50# line & up). I've been worried about abrasion, though, so I've been attaching a 6' "shock" leader of 60# Ande mono to my Power Pro with an improved Albright knot.
Is there a better way? Looking at that knot makes me nervous.
Thanks!
Tony
