Best Braid Line

[krisjack69]

I would like to know what would be the best braid line to put on my Sedona FB2500.I will be fishing with brush hogs senko type baits with it.I may also use a fluorocarbon leader also if I ever figure out how to tie one since I dont fish with leaders too much.I am thinking about getting either Sonic Braid or Tuf line.I want a good soft braid line.

I don't think there is a best. There are many brands of braid that sell well and many brands that fishermen speak highly of. But a lot of this is personal preference, not always for logical reasons. You might ask for some recommended brands but you're likely to get multiple recommendations.

I like Tuf Line (using 30 and 50lb at the moment) and PowerPro (using 15,20,40 and 50lb).

"I" would go with either of them in 15-20lbs for that real and those applications. 15lb is like 4lb diameter so I wouldn't worry about a leader, I've used them and never really noticed a difference.

Fill your spool 1/2 or 3/4 way full, with some old mono and spool the braid on top of it.

Spend the money and pck up some Diawa Samuari. You won't be disappointed.

I go cheap and use Spiderwire or Vicious (been using Vicious more lately, it isn't as stiff as SW and lays on the spool more cleanly)

I use a 45lb test braid with a 12lb fluoro leader. Tie the leader on with an Alberto Knot and you'll be in good shape.

Power Pro or 832 work great.

I've got 20 lb Fireline on my Stradic 2000 and it has been working good.

I like Sufix Performance Braid or 832. The 832 seems to be a little quieter going through guides but that's really the only difference I see. All braids are not equal but they're similar enough I don't think there is a huge difference between the brands. Sufix PB (in 30#+) and 832 both have 8 carriers while lines like PowerPro (excluding the new 'super slick') only have 4.

sufix performance braid is the smoothest reasonably priced briad out there

I'll see if I can find that suffix 832 braid.

Best boils down to what each individual prefers for them. As long as knots hold and handles the kind of fish I catch, that's all I need. With very few exceptions the braids I have used all cast just fine, they all cut over rocks and barnacles, knots are good..........I like what's on sale. I see no reason to over complicate any thing.
