So I watch the pros and they use braid with a leader of fluorocarbon. Some use leaders as long as 15ft. My question is what is the benefit of the braid if you are going to use such a long leader? I love to finesse fish with spinning setups. I rig all my setups with 6# and 8# straight fluoro no braid and no leader and I’ve never had a problem. So I’m I missing something or what? When I have tried the braid with a fluoro leader on windy days the braid bows way to much. I fish a relatively clear lake and fish a lot of deep brush piles and creek channel bends making long cast and fish a lot of 18-20ft of water. Never had a with problem sensitivity or casting distance. I have been having really good luck with this in 7lb test.
