20 lb braid is same diameter as 8 lb mono plus have u ever tried pickin a backlash out of 12 lb braid it sucks arse!!!

Chris eBay is the best/ cheapest I can find , mark told me those prices are at or below his cost . I was also thinking of switching to the yellow fir the bridges it's hard to watch your line using the moss green . Let me know how u like it

when i use braid, its usually 40# or 50# just because of its thicker diameter.. i find that it doesn't bury as bad as the thinner stuff. i also use a 17 or 20lb fluoro leader.
about a month ago i got a spool of the new fins xs 8-strand braid. it retained its color so far, but it seems to be coming apart or unwound. pretty lame for braid that costs $40 for 150 yards! good thing i got it free as a sales rep sample!

I fished with some 20 lb pwr pro hi vis yellow on Friday..... Wow!!!
U can feel the bite and the bottom sooo much more. It made a big diff for me!! That line on my new castaway skeleton rods and my new curado 50e's...... It's lethal!!!!
U can see the line perfect!!
I had a few fish wrap the pylons ..... Mono would have broke as in the past..... That braid was great!!

Ps.... We got on the best fish of the year for me out there..... Only a few days left.
I'd post pics but my Mac won't let mr load em....
I'll have em on Facebook soon.

last time I fished the causeway I used a 5ft ultra light rod with 10ld line, it was fun catching fish with an ultra lite rod and the sensitivity was awesome, next time I go i'm taking my kajun limb I haven't fished the bridges with it yet.
