    Depends on where you fish and whether you mind losing jigs and big fish or not. I use 20 lb braid. It has the line diameter of 2 lb mono. I mainly fish brush piles and submerged trees and logs. If I mainly fished open water or casted my choice would be different.

    8# test braid with it's 4# diameter. Allows for the best lure action of any line i've used other than 4# test fluorocarbon leaders.
