Hossmagnet Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 I have been using 65lb braid with a 4 foot flouro leader. It works really well but kind of a hassle having to retie. Does anybody have good luck with just straight braid? Quote
Super User RoLo Posted August 18, 2009 Super User Posted August 18, 2009 Flipping and clear water make strange bedfellows Waiting for a windy overcast day would be far more helpful than the tackle choice. Roger Quote

Super User Tin Posted August 18, 2009 Super User Posted August 18, 2009 Does anybody have good luck with just straight braid? If its heavy weeds that you are flipping, then yes. x2 If it is not that grassy you can just use 17 pound flouro. Quote

aarogb Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 If your still not getting bit try 20 lb. flourocarbon. Been using it for some time now in pretty dense cover and haven't broke off a fish yet. Quote
Jig Thrower Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 for me in depends on the lake i am fishing and how pressured it gets...there is one lake that they wont hit anything with braid but usually yes straight braid works Quote
DINK WHISPERER Posted August 18, 2009 Posted August 18, 2009 If it is heavy cover i would throw straight braid. If it is more scattered than 20lb fluorocarbon will do just fine. Quote
