Higher impact, it does stretch but returns to orginal shape faster & higher abrasion resistant.

The only thing I have against braid is no stretch, with my physical ailments if I set hook on something that aint a bass the pain is almost unbearable!

Sounds about right. That wouldn't be fun!

Isn't Big Game one of the lower stretch nylon lines on the market? I know Trilene XT is fairly low stretch.

 

 I do fish mono for several applications - most of them involve treble hook baits but not all.

 

Something to keep in mind when discussing line stretch - it's directly related to the length of your cast.

 

So if you bomb it out there you're going to have more stretch then if you make say half that same cast.  

 

So I had to learn that if I am using mono - especially on single hook bait applications, I'm trying to get bit with the shortest cast I can get away with.   I've learned to dial it back or deal with the stretch - that I essentially caused.
