    What do you mean ' Not anymore mate' ??? I have two Stradics in different sizes and they are great with braid, however my older Abu's will jamb if the line is coming in with out enough tension as a fish races towards you then takes off. Older reels are not all OK with braid IMO

    The old thinking was reels needed to have lots of crisscross but now feels are made with basically flat layup on the spool.
