So I like to flip and pitch my baits on mono line, simply because it is extremely low maintenance and I do not fish often enough (unfortunately) to drop 20 bucks on like 150 yards of braid! Anyways, a lot of people who I talk to about this ( I use trilene big game) tell me I should be going up to 20lb test around SPARSE cover. Last summer I landed my pb largemouth (5pnd 2oz 19.5inches, fatass bass) on 10lb big game around some serious tree branches and weed cover. My question is, if I could land this bass out of sparse cover on 10lb line with medium spinning gear, why are people shocked when I tell them I flip with 14lb mono on my baitcasters?
