		I've only used braid to spin so far.....not for Cod...I hear its great though.....as long as your "leader" is long enough.... 
...you wouldn't to tie direct, rip your reel right off yer rod.....   or do some kind of damage..

		 True that line casts like dream, but I can't trust fishin it at night. I find if the line ain't gonin on with tenion you'ld better have your handy dandy nail clippers  BLOO's Clues!  lol  I 'ld rather fish  big game and change my line more often (  that stuff aint cheap  )
