For bass. And not floro. P line cx premium is the best imo. Super strong. Limber ties well. Comes in 2 colors. Its thinner than most lines too for its rated test strength
Agreed, this was going to be my suggestion. I only ever used 10 pound. Can’t say I’ve ever broke a fish off because of not enough strength? Never fished a pike lake though
Thanks for the info and its what I have been using (floro) but in my past couple outings I have had breakoffs and I think its due to old line, not that I didnt change my leaders at the beginning of the year but I dont know how long I have had the spool I took it off of, summer heat and winter cold will do a number on it I am sure, making it brittle.
do you use this for bows too? Or just a general purpose line? I use it exclusively on my jig rods, its all I use now.
I use whatever is hanging around that I have accumulated over the years. All good name stuff but never lost a fish because of my leader material...
For bass and pickerel, neither of which I find line shy, I use 15 lb Ande pink,for pike, make that 20 lb Ande pink, for normal clear Lake fishing, I used 8lb Seguar floro, for trout only make that 6, for eggs make it Seguar. 4 floro.
What lb test are you running, and only mono? Trout in my opinion tend to be line shy is why I ask.
wow...that;s awesome you have never lost a fish because of poor leader material...
I run the pink Ande on my striper surf rods
I suspect you’re being sarcastic? Believe me I’m no expert fisherman but I give it my best shot...As far as leader material I use what I have just like I said. In the olden days there weren’t a million choices and we did well...I can’t keep up with the new technologies in line and don’t try. If a fish is spooked by my line, so be it.
