I am done with braid going back to mono.

[Backbeach Jake]

I use 50#PP mainline down from 65#. And a 40-50 # leader. I use a lighter mono leader beacuse sometimes I WANT to break it off, the Canal for example. Zip Problems.
I had a spool of 20#PP that I lost 3 plugs in 3 casts. I gave that one to my moron boss.oke: Something was definately wrong with that one.
I do have to say it took me a while to learn how to set the hook with braid. When I first started using it, I was giving it the mighty yank like mono. Well with mono you have considerable stretch to take up before the hook bites. With braid it's the flick of the wrist.
Last year I tried to go back to mono, missed a lot of hookups. I'm abraid guy now...

don't like 20 or 30 pp gotta be 40 and up. light stuff promotes windknots for me.

I have seen all 3 of my fishing buddies (they know who they are) complain about braid on more than one occasion! I use the mono with no complaints at all!

30# Big Game does the trick for me

Mee too, was always a slow hooker with mono, missed alot of fish.

Nine outa 10 with braid no need to even set the hook, cept to set it deeper.
