Tying braided line to regular mono
My house was built when I was 3 years old. I bought in in 2004. My cat has
requested weekly electrolysis to deal with what she thinks is excess facial
hair. She thinks I should pay for the treatments. A train approaches Kodak's
Rochester factory, derails, and dumps something which melts through the
asphalt on the adjacent street, but is theoretically harmless.With these factors in mind, can braided fishing line (like Berkley Fireline)
be tied directly to regular mono, or are the two best joined with a swivel? And, when did the train leave Baltimore? |

| An insane knot. While tying it, you appear to be playing cat's cradle (the
string game) with yourself. |

| A knot used to double up a line. I hardly have use them. They're a pain in
the arse to tie. |

| That is tied on braided line all the time on long range tuna boats out of
San Diego. |

| 1 - It's a small island in the Bahamas. 2 - It's called a Bimini Twist and makes a loop with a double twist -
very popular in billfishing circles. |

| No way what? Down here, a swivel means you ain't gonna get a bite. Or are you saying "no way" to swivels? |

| Braided line is best spooled with a backing of mono and it's common to
tie the two together - unless you have a tig welder in Batimore. In
which case, weld the braid onto the spool before the next train leaves.
Or, use feline facial hair as the backing and forego the welder. Do not attempt to weld facial hair back onto a cat unless you are three
years old and bought a house in 2004. Dale
