    No....mostly because it is not made (or rather easily available) in lower pound test ratings (below the commonly available 10# test). I prefer to use 4# test Fireline Crystal. I put a 2" section of fluoro on the end, then my jig. Have been using this combination for many years with excellent results.

    I like 20# for pulling cranks. Nine times out of ten when i hang up can go back and retrive lure.
    The braid is so strong it's like setting a anchor. Also us it @ times with a florocarbin leader jigging.

    Well I use 10lb Power Pro all the time and really like it. It is the same diameter as 2lb mono. I can pull jigs loose and rarely break the line.
    Down here in MO. would not even think of using 4lb. I would losing a lot of jigs.

    Fireline is the bomb. Accept no substitutes.

    Yes I use the 10-2, but tried the Power Pro Super Slick last year and like it a lot!
