Todd2 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 Straight <insert favorite line>, no leaders for me. I lean toward braid on spinning gear. Mono on casting gear. Quote
Dpaine88 Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 For me, once you go braid you don't go back. All my fishing buddies swear by braid too. It never tangles, nice and smooth, strong as hell, and easy to see. Never had an issue with braid ever. Like PowerPro and Suffic834. If I am fishing for Smallies in super clear water, I will use a 12lb Floro leader as well. Sometimes for topwater or Jerkbaits I will use a mono leader. The one downside is that the knot you use for braid takes a little longer than tying with mono or fluro. Quote
LionHeart Posted September 7, 2018 Posted September 7, 2018 Power Pro braid with mono leader for everything. I use super cheap Academy brand flouro for backing on my reels. Quote

Knot for me. Uni for all lines. OP. Use a lot of mono and co-polymers. Like others...braid on frog rod and rod I use for casting worms into the lily pads. Some braid on spinning reels, but still like mono there too. Big Game, Siege, AN40, Mean Green, 832 and Fins baitcasters. Elite, XL, 832 and Fins spinning. Quote
Super User burrows Posted September 7, 2018 Super User Posted September 7, 2018 Copolomer for moving baits florocabon for bottom baits Quote
Super User MIbassyaker Posted September 7, 2018 Super User Posted September 7, 2018 Braid, mono, or copolymer for me. No fluoro. Quote
Super User Boomstick Posted September 8, 2018 Super User Posted September 8, 2018 All three, depending what and where I'm fishing. Braid for frogs and jigs in heavy cover, mono for topwater or fishing in shallow water, fluro for everything else.

I just wanted an idea as to what you guys use. The search engine here is your friend.... There's a TON of good info here and a lot of teachers willing to share their expertise and knowledge. Use the search function and you'll get lost in a labyrinth of knowledge that'll make you go spend more money and catch more fish..... Quote
