Just to satisfy my own curiosity I called up Cannon to get their take on the subject. I talk to a nice individual in the tech department and he went into some detail on how the spider wire or braid absorbs water which after time will allow it to expand. With a couple hundred raps of wet braid that then expands it can cause enough pressure on the plastic spool to crack and break it. [:/] He said "he's seen more than a couple." He then emphasized that doing this will void the Cannon warranty. Just a friendly FYI.[][/font][font "Calibri"] [/font]
