Braid has terrible abrasion resistance. 20x less than mono. It's hot trash.
Thank You 🙏 unbelievable difference in hook set and hook & hold. I’m a Fluoro guy now!
Thank you for answering my questions. Take care
Where does co polymer fall in?
Thanks for the comprehensive line guide Glenn.
I’ve only used mono, it’s what I’m comfortable with..but I have 2 new bait caster reels and rods and got floro and braid😬
You are the first person I have heard say that braid is “very abrasion resistant” … everyone else says it’s not , and that it doesn’t hold up well around rocks for instance bc braid doesn’t stand up to nicks as well as mono.
🇺🇸👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
I put braid on all my reels and use leaders of either floro or mono. What are your thoughts? I like the castability and distance.
tried to switch to mono from braid, put the breaks all the way on my curado and my tension was up pretty good, still birdsnested with a weightless rig. sticking to braid, thank you
Just saw this. Thanks for this video. Very helpful!
Mono reflexs light, floro not as much. Floro has less stretch than mono, braid none. Floro best for plastics, jigs, feel type lures. 20# braid great for moving top water lures (buzz, whooper plopper, etc).
Thanks for the tips. As a new fisherman there is so much info out there as far as what type of line to use. I see most push the braid line, which is good if your your fishing for a living and money. I’ve been using mono 12 lb on my reels. After watching this video sounds like I need to try Floro out. Since it most versatile. Where I fish most of time really no need for braid. Beside I don’t have a arsenal of rods reels combos so floro not gonna break the bank. I only use spinning reels. Don’t have and never used. Baitcaster.
Know you probably won’t see this cause it’s 3 yrs later but this was very informative and I will use these tips when I am setting my reels up. Thanks for all these tips. 👍👍
Great breakdown and helpful for understanding the information . Thanks
mostly i have done saltwater fishing but now i want to do freshwater fishing but ever one says have use braided line
beacause of my frog top water lures . can i use heavy mono fishing line ?????????
Outstanding video!
I've been catchin bass for over 40 years. Even I learned a few things here! Thanks!!
On my spinning reels always braid to mono or fluorocarbon leader. Baitcaster I use straight mono.. except for my frog rod. Then 50 lb braid
How well does Copolymer fishing line perform on spinning gear?
Always enjoy your clearly informative, no BS presentations. Too many infomercials in sheep's clothing out there.
I ordered a large spool of 15 lb. fluorocarbon line (Seaguar Red Label) as per the "general-purpose" comment @ 10:30 in the video. Later noticed that it says "saltwater" line. Sheesh … TOO many options. lol. I think/hope that won't be a big issue if I'm fishing freshwater, eh?
What about copolymer line? Pline?
I just took Floral carbon off of mind and it backlashes too much.
How do you remember what line is on which reel, when you have 6-8 rods your using regularly?
I was using braid but it krept Line crossing so it Would stop my cast and then it Would bee a pain to get out i switched to mono and i dont have that problem now
Great informative video, thank you for sharing your knowledge.
Thanks again Glenn. Bass Resource has great info. I’ve tried entry level flouro before and could not cast the stuff to save my life. I’m really proficient with a baitcaster. Been fishing one for 25 years. What brand and make would you suggest that’s manageable? Thanks again
Thank u 🙏
