why? Just curious. I'd think that a "swimming" presentation would benefit from a line that sinks and is very hard to see.

Braid has a definite place, I know that. I have a few combos that always have braid on them. But I'd think a flourocarbon would be a much better choice for a swim jig.


Most of the time when I'm fishing a swimjig, its around heavy vegetation. Its a lot easier to get a piece of grass of the jig with braid. Just a flick of the wrist and it pops off and I can continue the retrieve without having junk on it. If it gets stuck on some pads or thick grass it will cut through
