You do not need shockleader when using braid you may prefer to use IT BUT ITS A personal choice BUT ITS NOT A MUST.

Braid is an ideal line for lure fishing, I wouldn't use braid at anytime without a shockleader due to its low abrasion.
Just for a test go and open your car window and rub the braid across the window, you may change your mind on shockleaders.

Wink Re: Braid > shockleader knot ?

you're absolutely right ..you CAN choose not to use any mono shockleader !
However as Chopper mentions try that for a couple of sessions at Chesil and see whats left of your braid fella !
Posting pics of fish caught on braid proves nothing bud - look heres two caught using braid and erm mono leader

Tad touchy there Mr Mix.

As you quite rightly say people have their own opinions but telling people to shut up because they dont share yours is is being a bit dictator-ish, wouldn't you say chap?

Which is what i said....
its not touchy it just shows a lack of knowledge and understanding of how a forum works ..

The thread is entitled " braid to shockleader knot " ..not "do i need to use a leader with braid " - not to be confused with do i need a shockleader ( used to prevent breakoffs when casting - NOT abrasion to the braid ).
And as for the pics dont make me laugh..whether caught on a boat or not, the whole point is will using a shock leader affect catches..the answer is obviously NO ...showing a pic of a smutt proves what exactly ?

Im sure Mags is delighted with your contribution to this thread
