I like it for all topwaters but some have a good point that it pulls the hooks out of the fish to easily. It is a must for floating frogs as it looks like you know.

Well we caught a 12lb sack today tying straight to braid it depends on the water color really if the water is muddy you can get away with braid for clear water def throw mono or in thick stuff throw braid with double uni knot mono leader

Treble hooks = mono
Single(or double frogs style) hooks = braid
It doesn't matter how you find the pot of gold, all that matters is that you beat the leprachaun.
