I've used braid a limited amount with fly gear. I do like how thin and strong it is. And yes, nothing beats it's sensitivity. I've used it nymphing, streamer fishing and a little bit of topwater bass. I'm pretty lazy when it comes to tying leaders, so I've mostly gone back to mono and fluoro. For my conventional, I use braid on just about everything. Either as the whole line system, or as the main line with fluoro or mono leaders. I use the same Alberto, or more recently, the FG Knot to connect the two lines. I've tried many brands and models of braid, and just about all of them have worked well, if you choose the right style for the application. It's good stuff.
