    Why 10# mono? Doesn't that put a damper on lure action?

    4 & 6lb test mono ... casting jigs, shooting docks
    10lb test braid ... casting or trolling Roadrunners & Whirly Bees, some jigging/casting
    6lb & 8lb test mono ... when using methods involving hook/sinker/minnow

    Hi-vis mono & braid for casting/trolling methods ... mixture of hi-vis & clear/blu mono for hook/sinker/minnow methods.

    I have no overall preference, and have never used fluorocarbon.
