My question involves your thoughts on gel spun backing vs. dacron? I have read a few articles as to how gel spun allows the use of more backing to be placed on the reel. I have also read that it has poor knot tying characteristics and how it's tension could cause friction and heat build-up.
My reel is capable of 300 yds of dacron so i dont see a need,although I hear gel spun is easier to lift off the water due to its thin diameter.
I want to hear from some people who Saltwater
fly fish as to the pros or cons or if you are for or against it based on experiences. Thanks....Ed
