Braid for Tube and Worm

[JohnnyD]

Also, any suggestions on a conventional rod and reel to pair it up with?

I'd prefer a levelwind.

in water that deep, I would opt for leadcore line.

most of the T&W fishing a lot of us do is in under 20 feet and lots of guys use braid and it works just fine for them.

That's what I've been told. I'm hoping to get around needing leadcore. It's going to be somewhat of a multipurpose rod/reel.

Basically, I'd like to only bring 2 rods on my trips. A spinning rod for casting and a conventional for trolling T&W, swimming plugs and drifting eels.
