In this instance, it's nothing to do with "playing", it's fishing relatedLOL

Simple way to check for damage to the guides-/-tip ring, is to pull a small piece of panty hose through.
If there is any damage ( often invisible to the naked eye) the panty hose will divulge all.

Thank you eveyone for help/interest/ideasSmile However, I have discovered cause of breakage, so with apologies to Berkley firstly and for wasting time,,,, what was happening was on my Okuma alumina,,just where the bail arm wire meets the roller thingy, there is a silly little sharp bit very small,but badly designed, that the braid can catch on if you are not aware(like me),and cuts braid VERY easily!!!I felt such a twit on discovering this I nearly didnt write this, but thought I should so others are aware of this problem.Thanks again to all for helpEmbarrassed]]> Sun, 23 Mar 2008 22:24:23 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27923&PID=386900&title=bl-dy-braid#386900 <![CDATA[Bl...dy Braid : what may have happened is your...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27923&PID=386884&title=bl-dy-braid#386884 Author: roddholder

what may have happened is your line wasnt wound on tightly enough in the first place, and with the weight of the fish on, it cut into the line left on the spool and caused a crossover.]]> Sun, 23 Mar 2008 21:18:30 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27923&PID=386884&title=bl-dy-braid#386884 <![CDATA[Bl...dy Braid : Thanks Monts, ill give it a go...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=27923&PID=385432&title=bl-dy-braid#385432 Author: tennut

To get photies on you have to push the reply button on a post & you will get extra icons with a insert image button. Also your pic has to be a certain size OR when you browse & select, you can resize me thinks.
