hi ranger, only noticed more wind knots when using vibes and plastics. the first 4lb braid i used was to thin, i couldnt tie my braid to mono knots so i went back to using a swivel. but was still getting knots. swapped to finns windtamer in 4lb, it is alot thicker,easier to tie my braid to mono knots but alas same prob. my reel is a diawa luvious custom 2000 so i think it should handle braid. other members have suggested power pro braid so i think will give that a shot,retension line more frequently,thanks

yeah smokey im using luvious custom 2000 reel on a diawa infeet gekkabijin 1 to 3kg stick. made for chucking light lures. think my spool was a bit over full but not now with some line lost so see how it goes. cheers

cheers thanks southie for the tip,will have to try some power pro next

hi strike hookers been having problems with air knots when casting with 4lb braid. use mostly for lure spinning. it has been wound on tight when first spooled onto reel.i use mostly light lures,but now and then still cast out and run the line through my fingers to retension onto spool. i keep line tight in contact with lure when spinning,but are still having problems with air knots. i have lost a lot of braid coz of this,it is getting to expensive to replace all the time. i have been using the team diawa tournament braid,changed to finns windtamer and still having same probs. i want to stick w
