Most of my Angling this year has been lure fishing on the River Thames, using both drop shotting an small shad tactics, with perch as my target. These methods have been proving quite successful, although I am having some serious braid twist issues, which I am hoping you kind folks could help me out with
The problem starts after about half an hour of casting, leaving the first 6 feet of my line is very badly twisted. This line then ends up wrapping around the tip of my rod and I have to de-tackle, run the line through my fingers to untwist it and start again. A have tried to adding more swivels to my traces/fluorocarbon dropshot leaders, though this doesn't appear to help.
The braid I am using is "Fox Rage Soft Steel". If anyone has any experience with this braid or has any suggestions on reducing line twist, I would be very grateful to from you.
