xxmurrxx Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 Just ordered a new reel, looking to try some new line on it. Any suggestions on brand and LB test for shallow to mid crankbaits and jerkbaits? Currently i think im running 10 lb berkley big game not 100% sure it's been on there a while lol. Quote
Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted August 25, 2009 Super User Posted August 25, 2009 I've been using 10lb P-line Flouro-clear for those applications and have had no problems. It stretches a bit more than CXX which I normally use. I would also say 10lb CX or yo-zuri hybrid or 8lb CXX. Quote
Hot Rod Posted August 25, 2009 Posted August 25, 2009 I like the Pline florclear as well for both those aps. 8lb for the jb's and 10lb for cb's. Though for crankbaits if I'm in heavy shallow cover I sometimes go with 12lb Trilene XL. It's flotation helps lures "back out" when you get them under a limb and I just seem to get hung with it less in that situation. Its just more foregiving around would-be snags. Quote
Use ONLY Stren Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 P-Line CX, Yozuri Hybrid or Hybrid US, and sometimes stren original. ;D Quote
Koop Posted August 26, 2009 Posted August 26, 2009 I really don't like the Floroclear, I would suggest Yo-Zuri in 10# or else go with a true Fluoro like Seaguar InivisX in 8 or 10# Quote
