Size Line On Baitcaster?

[mixermarkb]

In my not so humble opinion, you really haven't fished Flourocarbon till you have fished Sunline Sniper or Shooter. Berkeley Trilene 100 percent Flourocarbon is ok, personally I haven't really liked any Seagaur since Carbon Pro. The Sunline stuff is just so much better in every way, it's hard not to sound like a boat show-sublimated jersey-flat bill hat wearing "pro staffer" when talking about it. +1 on the Big Game too.

You must not fish behind docks with jigs much......

I like using 15# for the majority of my fishing on the rivers. My cranking setup has 10-12# and spinning has 15# braid with 8-10# fluorocarbon leader. If I go up to LoZ and plan on skipping jigs around docks, then I will bump up to 20# fluorocarbon.

I still fish them Seth but not with heavy jigs but much as with creature baits.and Plastic worms. Even with Jigs it go as light as I can.  I try to use a weight that I can so that I can work them thru the brush as naturally as I can. I use a 1/4 oz on the big worms Like the Kreit worm. I do have one outfit with 20 lb braid and also 10lb braid on my crappie outfits. Because of the shoulders they wear out very fast flipping and pitching docks. The past couple of years I have been mostly dropping from shot straight down into spots around docks. Works pretty well for me

I thought you were ANTI- johnny world on everything?

what gives?

I use it because it works best for me. Doesn’t change my politics. And it gives people something to snipe at me about. 😆

has anyone on here tried Izorline?   It is really cheap and it gets great reviews on Tacklewarehouse.  Usually people rag on everything in their reviews on TW

I like it a lot. Handles pretty good, very strong, low stretch and outstanding abrasion resistance. I've used more of the premium than the XXX.

I have been a user of Seaguar Invisx 6 lb for neds and drop shot, have always like it, but the price has jumped to the point that a 1200 yard spool of Sunline Sniper is only $3 more that a 1000 yard spool of Invisx.  Invisx handles well on spinning tackle, I wonder how well Sniper would do on spinning tackle.

Sniper is awesome on spinning tackle. I use the 7lb for Ned, grubs and tubes, and have no problems at all on Shimano 2500 size reels. I use a squirt of reel magic every once in a while, but have no real problem with twist.

FYI, Sunline diameters run thinner than most other brands, so look at the specs rather than pound test for apples to apples comparisons...

I'm convinced that Sunline is far superior to Seaguar.  The difference in casting quality with it is immediately noticeable.
