[QUOTE="LDUBS, post: 457802, member: 21536"] Scotty says using mono on their DR's is a no-no. Reason being it stretches under load then will contract on the spool resulting in uneven windings or even damage. I also prefer steel over braid. There are a lot of advantages to braid, but I just feel I will notice a nick or kink in steel easier than in braid. Makes preventive maintenance a little easier. I carry spare parts/terminal kits but not spare cable or weights. Another thing to add to the seeming never-ending list. [/QUOTE]
