Braided vs Monofilant Line

[Jigman13]

It's all a matter of preference and application.

As for brands, with mono type lines I go with p line usually. If I'm spooling fluoro like 4-8 lb test, I go with sunline.

With braid I use power pro super slick 8 in 15 and 20 lb for my plugging, top water and smaller swim baits and jigs. I tie a 3' 10-15 lb fluoro leader when using these set ups. For my heavier setups I'm usually using 20-60 lb sufix 832. In my opinion it's the best braid on the market when considering cost to quality.

For my fluoro leader I use seguar and have experimented with gamma. Leaders vary from 4 to 60 lb test depending on application.

Hope this helps.
