Spiderwire Braid

With all my new gear I thought I better finish off the set up with some decent braid. For rough ground and the cliffs I opted for Spiderwire in 60lb, at 0.25mm diameter it should cast far better than the work horse braid I'm currently using at 0.40mm.
The only drawback with the thinner braid is that I had to add a shock leader to protect my index finger and this runs the risk of another knot to fail and weed catching on the leader knot. However a length of 70lb nylon may give me a little more confidence when casting.
