I use braided line for trolling and ice fishing.
as for the line spooking the fish, I cant count the number of times I have heard that fairy tail.
I used a large diamiter floresent orange braded ice fishing line to troll for walleyes to settle a bet and more so to prove a point, it is not the color of the line that scares the fish, what matters more is the quality of your rigging how your bait is presented along with the amount of attentiveness you give to fealing the weight at the bottom of your line... at the end of the day I caught more walleye than every one else in the boat combined.
the point is braided line even the larger and thicker diamiter is strong reliable and dosent scare the fish, it dose require you to use a different feal than what you are used to when using mono, and I like using mono... I also beleive that braided line has a longer shelf life than mono.... I havent heard of any comparesing reports though to state the facts.
