Wouldn't suggest using roadrunners if you fish clear water lakes. The flash seems to turn off crappie and you catch a lot more bass. I fish Lake Lanier and it's hard to catch em on RR's. I don't use braid long lining. I'd hate to try and pull it loose and get cut. That could be painful! Why spend the money on braid anyway. You could buy 6lb braid but seems like a waste. I use 6lb hi-vis main line with 4lb fluoro leader.
