    10 lb power pro braid, but sometimes 6 lb braid also as I like it for getting the crankbaits deeper. Braid is just stronger and no stretch.

    Used to use 10# hi-vis mono, but got to where we were losing 5-7 bandits a trip. Went back to 25# hi-vis power pro and solved that problem. Only lose the occasional bandit now and then and catching more fish too.

    12 pound Trilene Big Game Solar Collector Green.

    If it was just me I would use braid but I won’t put braid anywhere close to clients for a variety of reasons.

    30 pound braid of various brands to get different colors on each rod. Makes picking out swarms and tangles easier.
    Crappie bite twice a day. 15 minutes before I get there and 10 minutes after I leave.
    The two loudest sounds are a gun that goes bang when it is supposed to go click and one that goes click when it is supposed to go bang.
