Default Re: Semi-New to braided/Superline... Quick question.

If you are surf fishing, you probably don't need more than 150yd braid. You can pick up a 150yd spool for cheap.

The way I figure out how much mono backing I need is following.
1. spool with braid
2. Tie on mono backing using uni-uni.
3. Fill the spool with mono backing.
4. Transfer to another spool twice, so that mono will be sitting on top of braid.
5. Spool it back on to the reel.

Good luck.
