With braid being in the general region of 3 times as strong as the marked breaking strain of it...  and with mono being equal to the marked breaking strain ...

what does this mean for abrasion resistance...?


mono is ment to be far more abrasion resistant, but if braid is 3x stronger surely that would make it stronger overall??
here fishy, fishy fishy.....

George I guess if you are comparing the same diameter braid and mono then that could be the case but if you take some 30lb mono and some 30lb braid and give each a bit of a grate on the rocks....you'll soon have your answer!
