My opinion for what its worth, hehehe. They both have there place. I am a huge spider wire fan. Nothing better than being able to rip a big ol pike right out of a nasty azz weed patch without worrying about snapping off your line. Also when jigging for Lake trout in 200 feet of water I get way better hook sets with spider wire as opposed to mono. Do you know how much strech there is when setting a hook with 200 feet of mono out? Enough I had to set the rod as high as possible reel up all slack and do it one more time just to make sure it was set. Now I can set the hook by raising the rod tip approx 4-5ft and I feel fish. Another spot when fishing for rainbows we can not catch them on anything but 2 or 3 lb test mono. And 2lb test mono is the best. Spider wire no matter the diameter just wont fish there doesnt matter the color or anything. It just will not catch fish. We have sat side by side with that being the only difference and one caught fish, the other didnt. So i guess my advice is to maybe have both setups and use whichever fits the situation your in.
