If you think 12inch 20lb florcarb messes my top water bait your an idiot... I will tie two spooks with same length and lay side by side and you will see zero impact on the bait

Not if it is just a leader. I fish with 15 lb. braid and 20 lb. floro leader.
No sinking issues with topwaters.

Because I don’t like to tie to braid........and it gives shock and it has 0 effect on the topwater bait so it really don’t matter

Take off the mono and spool it up with some Fins wind tamer. Also try using a mono leader connected with a small spro swivel, I personally don't use a swivel.
