Braid
 

What's the best choice for baitcasters?

I like power pro...but they say suffix has some good stuff out

When I used braid, it is either 20 or 30 lb powerpro. I do not know if anyone else experiences this, but when I try to make a good hard cast with braid it seems to hit a certain distance in flight and backlash no matter how much I try to not let it happen. If I make a nice easy mid distance cast, no problem. It is only when I try to make those far casts.

I just hover my thumb over the spool and I can chunk the mess out of mine, but your braking system has a big part in that

20lb PowerPro all the way.........love that stuff!

Sufix braid 832

Suffix or FINS Windtamer. They are very, very similar. I have used the same Suffix on my Cronarch for the last 6 months. Haven't changed it yet. I do suggest 20 lb. It casts farther than the 30 lb. You can also hold a little more on the spool, partly because it is 6 lb mono equilvalent.

Do y'all tie directly to the lure or use a leader? florocarbon? favorite knot for braid?

I use 20lb Berkley Big Game Mono it works just fine........not sure of the name of knot I use someone showed it to me so I'm unaware of the name sorry
They have some videos on YouTube that are pretty helpful

20lb power pro 15 lb fluro leader no breaks engaged on reel I can cast an entire spool out of a core 50mg

Tie braid to fluro leader w a uni- uni knot 5th+ leader length

Gotta go with the new Suffix 832. Fantastic line. IMO it's softer than the FINS. Have been using it for about a month and love it.

Suffix 832 is the shiznit! Use a small spro swivel with 20lb floro leader. I never could get use to the leader knot going through the guides. A guide told me a nail knot works well,but never used it yet.

I'd like to see that one....

Ok....I believe you......now, teach me how to do it!!

Light action rod , learn to use no breaks with the tension knob really loose and take all factory grease/ oil out of the reel n put quantum hot sauce
