Hey TFR,

I use 6 lb for trout/panfish. I use 8 and 10 lb for smallies. I Throw my Ned stuff on the 8 lb usually.

I use the White Nano and I would also feel good about the chartreuse. I will not buy the low Vis green. I want to see the line to help with visual strike detection when dead sticking.

I use a leader.

[Guest]

ah, I didn't know that you were using a leader.

I will stick to my 10lb braid for now.

So many choices, so little time....

Revo S 30 has the best drag i have seen in that class spinning reel,

lightweight, holds more than enough line ,30 size gear ratio is just what I needed

or Lew's tournament speed spin would be a close second less expensive option

My dad bought the Revo S-20 last year & he hasn't used it. So, I could probably barter for that reel. Its too small for him anyway, he really needs the S-30.

Ham, what advantages does Nano have over 10 lb power pro other than bright colors?

Hey Hoglaw,

Braid doesn't throw as well as mono. Nanofil out throws mono. If you go straight from throwing braid to throwing nanofil, you're going to put baits up on the bank, a lot.

The Nanofil isn't as loud going thru the guides as braid either. I got used to the braid singing, but I like it better w/o the noise.

The color in braid fades quickly. Nano's color doesn't change much.

The extra casting distance is the biggest thing to me.

I'm waiting for the bubble gum pink to come out before I try it...

[Ham]

I'd fish Nanofil that was Pink in a heartbeat.

I switched to high vis yellow braid & its helped me watch the line under low light conditions.

It got to where I couldnt see the low vis green anymore, so I made the switch.
