I am good with either 4 or 6 pound line. (Stren or Spider Wire)
6# fireline for all my crappie and bream reels. I tie on at least a foot long piece of 6# mono as a leader and to my jigs straight to that.
I have a few closed reels I keep for family members. Right now they have the 4# mono line from the factory but it seems to be a bit problematic so I'm thinking of replacing it with 6# flourocarbon.

May God be with you. Keep CALM and STAY ANCHORED with your faith.
Straight 4lb stren or trilene on my spinning reels. On my long jigging poles I use 10lb fireline high viz green with a 4lb leader 2-6' long depending on what I need at the time. With steady pressure 4lb line will straighten light wire hooks and 1/32 oz jig hooks.
I like Sufix Elite Clear in a 6lb line in heavy cover. It's strong and casts great.
Like Warmouth said above, 1/32 light wire hooks. You can get some from Lightwirehooker here on Crappie.com.

6,8,10 lb test and I like a strong tough line.I stay away from the limp break easy stuff.
I PRACTICE CATCH & FRY---DONT EVERYBODY ? Thumbs Up
I just spooled up with 4# Berkley Nano Fill, .004" diameter and really smooth. Haven't fished yet but I think it's going to be good.
2# or 4# depending on where I'm fishing
Clear water will get the 2#
Whatever #4 line thats on sale, your only talking about 1# fish on the max in most waters.
Cheap line is a great way to lose a big fish. A one-pound bluegill can easily break even a quality 4-lb. line if improperly played. There's no worse feeling than losing a big fish to haphazard planning.
