Braided line.

I use 10# braid with an 8# Fluoro leader about 4' long. Use uni to uni for attaching braid to leader....

We use 15# PowerPro Depth-Hunter for trolling. It's tied to a 3 way swivel with my double jig/minnow rig. Our jig rods are 4# KastKing HiVis mono. For bass I've got anywhere from 15# - 65# braid some with FC leader.

I like 15lb power pro super slick in hi viz yellow. I also use a 6lb leader of invizx fluorocarbon with an Alberto knot. Very small connection knot. On all my spinning gear.

I put on Power Pro slick last year, I was doing a bunch of casting in the fall for stripers. The only issue I had was in the wind, I had a couple issues where the line would come off the spool and knot up. Bass Pro called it a wind knot, not sure but it made a mess. I still like the braid and plan to use it again, this is on a spinning reel.

I use 15 pound braid (8 lb. mono diameter) with a 4 foot 8 pound fluorocarbon leader connected to each other with a swivel and a cross lock clip at the end. I pull crankbaits 90% of the time and love the sensitivity & no stretch of the braid. I lose a few fish pulling off the hooks from no give in the braid, but I boat a lot more with braid than when I used mono exclusively. The stretch in mono didn't bury the hooks as well. I use line counter baitcaster reels.

30# braid on most of my reels with a 4 to 12# leader.

Thanks for this thread. I have used braid for Bass but not Crappie. Have 65# on a BC for jigs and worms, 8 lb on spinning for finesse. May try the finesse rig for crappie. Time to experiment.
