basser223 Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 so tell me what kind of line do you prefer? Quote
Christop73 Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I've been using seagar invizex, this year. It's good stuff! Quote
florida strain Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 For me all of the above -Example mono-topwater, trebble baits,helps float braid- for flippin- pitchin cover floro- when line sight is more important but yet abrasion resistant Quote
Dockhead Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 I mostly use mono and braid, with braid playing a bigger and bigger role all the time. Trying to like fluoro, have it on 2 or 3 rods, but not seeing the great benefits that I get with braid. Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted April 25, 2010 Super User Posted April 25, 2010 Should have multipal choices... Swimbaits, flippin and pitchen jigs..55lb braid, sometimes I use a fluro leader, depends on the cover. Light stuff 6lb Seaguar InvisX fluro , on the spinning rigs. Spinnerbaits ect..10 or 12 lb Seaguar AbrasX fluro on my baitcasters. I will also throw Light swimbaits on the 12lb fluro. Quote
Super User Big Bait Fishing Posted April 25, 2010 Super User Posted April 25, 2010 i voted for all the above . flouro for crankbaits and bottom presentations , braid for frogs and topwater , mono/co-poly for swimbaits . Quote
The Yankee Fist Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 YZH 6 for spinning, 12 for casting...green. Thanks RW for speaking so highly of that line. 2nd season using it and I absolutely love it. Quote
NBR Posted April 25, 2010 Posted April 25, 2010 So much depends on where and how. The lakes I usually fish are gin clear. So I use fluorocarbon for most applications. Mono for surface, spinner baits and shallow cranks. Braid for the main line on C-Rigs and either a mono or floro leader. Quote
Super User .dsaavedra. Posted April 25, 2010 Super User Posted April 25, 2010 braid. for everything. even my UL's are rigged up with braid. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted April 25, 2010 Super User Posted April 25, 2010 I use mono for everything except for frogs and heavy cover applications (50 pound power pro), and I use power pro for hard jerkbaits too. Quote
Super User RoLo Posted April 25, 2010 Super User Posted April 25, 2010 I've used monofilament line for about 50 years, but since 2006 I've been hooked on braid :-[ Roger Quote
Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted April 25, 2010 Super User Posted April 25, 2010 I use co-poly and some fluorocarbon, can't stand braid, more trouble than it's worth. Quote
YNCBASSMAN Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 there's a line management system article on this site which makes sense. to me anyway. i love braid, but use mono and fluoro also. Quote
pat_walker_fishing Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 i use floro on everything but topwater...i will use braid for flipping or c-rig main line but rarley. Quote
Chaz Hickcox Posted April 26, 2010 Posted April 26, 2010 Been fishing braid for a long time and out of options on the water I had to switch to flouro. I have been impressed and will still keep some braid for spinners or other expensive baits I put in some real hairy spots, and at least one rod with mono for spooks and such, but everything else is going to flouro.

WanderLust Posted April 27, 2010 Posted April 27, 2010 I change between mono and braid depending on water clarity.... I was using Suffix quite a bit (the green is easy to see) but recently switched to Power Pro which is smoother and casts really nicely but is invisible to my older eyes. For mono I'm using Cajun 10LB right now but I don't have a favorite. Transoptic was meh (user error)... Quote
