Eben, Mono will cut down distance big time, you probably would not hook as many fish...Go with a VS250 or 300 and spool it with the nes Spiderwire XDS in 35LB Test. This is the strongest stuff out there. The only problem it is a bit stiff untill you break it in....And Back off on the Drag!!!!! NLot fewer breakoffs! Best off Luck, Toby, drop me a PM curious on what the fish hit..You dont have to give details..I havent thrown a plug all season! You try any of them small white Habs?

Yes! once the hook is set, backing off the drag a tad makes all teh difference

right now i'm using 50lb ppower pro on a vs250.... i just dont like the zero flex that braid gives you...
