I have a Powell Spook/Trap rod 7'0". I like being ale to choose to throw a lipless crank or going with a hard-bodied top water like a Zara Spook, With that in mind, what line would you suggest? I was using 20# spiderwire but was thinking of going to something more "invisible" Because fluoro sinks I will not being using that. Is mono the best choice here since the lures have treble hooks?

Personally, I use a 30 pound braid tied to a mono or co-poly leader. Co-poly does sink, but very slowly. Not enough that it will adversely effect the action of the lure unless you let it sit in place for a very long time.

15lb Yozuri Hybrid or 15lb P-Line CXX

Both are super strong and for ripping traps through grass your gonna want something heavier than 10-12lb line and plus the bigger line actually sits higher in the water to work a spook. For both of those presentation the fish will not be looking at the line, so size shouldn't spook fish.

I use berkely big game in 12# for my crank and topwater rods. Tough and plenty of stretch to keep those trebles in.
