I like P-Line 6 or 8 lbs for Walleye.
It is low stretch and plenty strong and is light enough when the fish get finicky.
I do have a couple rods spooled with PowerPro. 20 lb braid with 15-20 ft of 20lb flourocarbon leader for Lakers and Pike.

I use either Seaguar or P-Line fluoro in 6 or 8 lb for walleye, 4 lb for perch. For pike and lake trout I use either 15 lb fluoro or have a couple of setups with suffix 832.

Until this year I always used braid in either power pro or fireline on my ice rods. I switched up to 8lb p-line after some advice for a friend and it was the best decision. It gave the rod a completely different feel and even the reel feels smoother when reeling up fish. It's plenty strong enough and the knot strength is great! The best part is a 300 yard roll is less than 10 bucks. I'd recommend it to anyone.
