Fiishing line


Question
Hey Ken, I have been an avid bassfisherman for years I consider my knowledge very good when it comes to most things about the sport. But there is one thing that I am not too sure about. I can't figure out what type of line to use with different lures and different techniques. I was hoping you could give me some examples of what techniques and lures to use when fishing with mono, fluorocarbon, and braided lines. I always have 3 rods and reels with me in my boat and i was hoping to have a different line on each. Thanks

Answer
Hi Travis,
Thanks for this very good question.
You might find it helpful to use mono in situations where the stretch and sinking ability of this line is an advantage. This would be a great line for a crankbait for example. Mono absorbs some water so it sinks which can be a factor in getting that extra depth. Graphic rods are a bit stiff for crankbaits, but the stretch inherent in mono line helps provide a shock absorbing effect which can minimize losses with this line. Due to this stretch, however, you might have to work a little harder for a good hookset.
Flourocarbon, or a hybrid, is a great choice for topwater baits as it does not sink. I like to use a hybrid line as it casts a bit better, in most cases, than pure flourocarbon, especially on a spinning reel. This line works well as an all-around line also. It's very strong, doesn't stretch much, and is invisible in water. That characteristic also makes it the best line for fishing in clear water.
Braid is great stuff. Use it in heavy cover when fishing jigs and worms and your catch ratio will go up. Be sure to use very heavy hooks with this line... I had a real heart-breaker in a tournament because the combination of heavy braid, heavy fish and "regular" hook resulted in a lost fish when the hook bent enough to release it. Braid is good in dirty water too because it's hard for the fish to see it then, and it is so sensitive you feel every bite.
I hope this answered your question.
