    Default What # test do you pull crankbaits with?


    Reason I ask is I've always used 12# and went to re-line my reels today and somehow accidentally picked up 8# while I was at the store.

    I use Suffix 832 braid 30lb with about a 6lb mono diameter. However I troll where there are a lot of tree and I'm afraid if I didn't use braid I'd lose too many baits.
