I mostly target bass and other warm water species. I have 8 pound Pline floroclear on my spinning reels, that I use for drop shotting and other fitness techniques. When using my spinning reels for casting situations, I typically go to 10 pound mono. Anymore I primarily use a baitcaster for most situations. Depending on the cover or structure I'm fishing, I use 8 pound or 10 pound mono.
Always being cognizant of my drag setting, I haven't broken off a fish in quite some time on mono, but I have been considering switching to braid. Fishing thick vegetation and trees, lately I have found myself very concerned about losing fish. However as Bob said, I am concerned about creating a serious birds nest.
SmartWeed, have you found one brand to be superior to others?
