Braid for trout in streams

[thmyorke1]

i imagine everyone on this forum is aware to never litter like that. Definitely a pet peeve of mine to find clumps of line like that, especially when it's the strongest braid conceivable! i gather as much loose line I find like it's my mom's spaghetti. Sometimes find the "meatball" at the end... a nice rapala to add to the collection

Problem with braid is it won't break. Many don't use leaders but tie direct, most just cut the line on braid.

True
If they had a dowel or thick stick they can wrap it around a dozen times and pull Just like bottom fishing in the ocean.
More times than just losing your lure you bend the hooks and don’t leave all that line in the water making an environmental hazard.

Uhhhhggggg! I pulled 1000 yards of braid out of the Raritan Tuesday night. Can’t stand it when I’m trying to cast to a sweet spot and get hung up. Definitely a pain for animals and anglers. Never used it in a Trout stream, never will.
