Im looking to buy some hooklink line but they are so many to choose from im a little lost and was hoping to see what you guys use. So far ive been tieing all of my hair rigs with some 20lb powerpro but it seems to be a bit to stiff.

Thanks for the reply Zach i bought one of those ready rigs from wacker baits link and the hook link they had on there was way softer than the power pro ive been using so i thought thats how it was supposed to be, softer was better.

Why do you use braid as your hook link ?

I always use braid as my hooklength because it is easier for me to tie the loop at the end of hair and it just seems to work better for me. I have tried tying hairs using mono, but it just doesn't look right. So I stick to braid. I use 30lb power pro and also sufix coated braid 20lb strength.

i use 50lb power pro and its great! Power Pro floats, It won't lay naturally on the bottom. This can also lead to tangles from fish sucking and blowing.
