Braid or Fluorocarbon?
Skifisher:
Advantage/disadvantage of spooling with braid or flouro on a Pflueger President reel? Primarily fishing trout, walleye and bass. Suggestions? Thanks!
SLAYERFISH:
Depends. I happen to love braid. Many hate it. I use Nanofil 6lb with a 10 lb floro leader. For eyes, trout, bass, perch, whatever. Straight floro on a spinning reel tends to birds-nest. Your results may vary.

X2 for the braid to a fluoro leader. My ultralight spinning setup I run 6lb PLine but if the line starts to get twisted I'll change it out since the spool doesn't hold too much.

I like braid , for ice fishing , shore casting and soft water jigging ,
Eyes , lake trout. , and perch , with either a trans optic or carbotex leader

Braid with a floro leader. Braid last longer, but trout may be line shy. Floro has its place, but since it doesn’t recover from being stretched, I don’t like using it as the bulk of my spool.
