JediAmoeba Posted April 17, 2020 Posted April 17, 2020 Top water? Man, that was so long ago, I don't remember... lol. For the ones you asked about I usually use 30 or 40 lb braid to a 10# or 12# mono leader. Quote

Super User J Francho Posted April 17, 2020 Super User Posted April 17, 2020 The 30# SuperCast I was using has been discontinued, so I'll be looking for an alternative when mine runs out. Quote
Super User Fishes in trees Posted April 17, 2020 Super User Posted April 17, 2020 I use mono - whatever mono goes on sale at Walmart every spring 17 or 20 . (Except Big Game, Big Game is banned from my tackle shed). I believe Suffix was the last brand I bought and it has worked fine. The catch is to use a heavy enough popper, around a half ounce or more. For topwater baits, I use the Lucky Craft popper or a Sammy if I need a walking bait, and they are heavy enough and work fine. If I know I'm going to be using the same bait for a while, I will take the time to double up the line and tie a loop knot with the doubled up line. Never had one of those knots break. Quote
