Better Braid JB Hollow or JB Solid

(1/2) > >>

Craig Maree:
Which is the better braid to use if tying leaders with a PR knot and not splicing - the JB  Hollow or the JB Solid?

I see Nomads utilise and suggest the JB Hollow!

What would the difference is use be?

I understand that the JB Hollow is softer would this be better for casting? 

Ryan Theyer:
Hi Craig, Did you end up finding out any info on the difference??? I am trying to figure out myself????

Luke Wyrsta:
I think the solid is better.

If you want to splice, then the Hollow is the way to go (note: 80lb solid can be spliced but it's difficult!).

Nomad uses Hollow because they can easily splice lines together after a reefing. No doubt, either way it's an awesome braided line.

Yaniv Adler:
solid ;)

Ryan Theyer:
Cheers guys, I will go the solid.... I think..........
