ajschn06 Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 How necessary is braided line when throwing something like a toad where it's just chuck and wind all the time? Wondering if I can get away with throwing it on 20 lb fluoro on a MH setup occasionally instead of having something rigged up with heavy braid. Quote
Skunkmaster-k Posted July 13, 2021 Posted July 13, 2021 I’m a big fan of 20# mono on a toad . With the braid it seems like I tear a lot of hooks out. 3 Quote

Super User scaleface Posted July 14, 2021 Super User Posted July 14, 2021 If you are limited to the number of combos then make do with 20 lb floro or mono . But if your going to have a dedicated toad rod ,then braid is the way to go . Quote
Deephaven Posted July 14, 2021 Posted July 14, 2021 Everything else you throw on the frog rod is classically better on braid as well. I would much rather use a slightly smaller braid than mono. 30lb you can get away with on a frog, although 40lb is better but if you have to compromise I would compromise that way and not run mono. You will lose more frogs and baits with mono/flouro than the braid....at least if you fish slop where IMO frogs excel. Quote
