Thread: Braid ? Mono ?

I tried braid spider rigging and pulling cranks! Was not a fan! Absolutely love braid for single pole jigging! But I will stick to my mono for all other methods!

You will get a hundred different answers to this question, in the end it all boils down to personal preference. I pull cranks with braid, I single pole with braid, I use braid for rigging with mono or fluoro leaders and long line with either mono or fluorocarbon, sometimes both.

Personal preferance....but I use 10 lb. Hi vis yellow mono for everything.

I push and pull with braid, all other 10# Copoly mono- green.

Power troll and crank with braid, power trolling I use a mono lead from the weight to the jig hoping not to loose the 2 dollar trolling weight if I hang up.
All other methods I use mono, pushing minners I want to be able to break off if need be and I'm not concerned with weight slo trolling, 1 oz very common in my rig and don't be surprised to see a 2 oz weight on my poles when fishing more than 10 foot deep.
