I use Fireline(similar to braided) I've used the same line of for 3 yrs. Doesn't fray like braided, only broke maybe 3-5 five times. I use it for everything, pike, bass, spinnerbait, crankbait, soft plastics. Definately worth a try.

Get the new fireline tracer braid. strong, very abrasive resistant (even against pike teeth) and cuts wonderfully through weeds. also great for shorefishing, easy to see against waves and wind

I really like that stuff for trolling. You can count the bright sections and know how much line you have out.

Make sure you always tie the lure on the non-bright section.

I use power pro when I am fishing in the weeds to rip the bass out if I get one.  Really like it and it seems to hold up very well.

   I've been using Fireline, since it came out; I personnally think that it's the cats MEOW for jigging & Drop shotting!!!......use a small barrel swivel & about 24in. florocarbon shock leader.......Lou

i use braid on everything you can feel the bite better no stretch and its great to watch your line twitch on top of the water

I use braided line on all of my spinning reels. I dont have good luck with it on my bait casters for some reason. Too many rats nests. I really do like it on my senko rods the most. As you can see the very light bites. ;D

you will have to pry the braid (powerpro) from my rods, nothing gives me better feel then braid. sometimes guys get crazy and load up rods with 50+lb but, and sure that has it's place, but 10lb braid throwing senko's is amazing
