OP jls1 Angler J Joined: Sep 2008 Posts: 446 Ft Worth, TX	Happy Friday All! My local lake is a bit over full pool and I’m curious what everyone’s opinion or preference is for line when pitching soft plastics in shallow flooded bushes. I’ve been using 65lb braid, with a 7’6” flipping stick, but wondering if I should be doing something different. Looking forward to your input & hope everyone has a great weekend!

It seems to be thinner than some of the suggestions that you did not comment on. Last edited by ezbassin; 04/09/24 10:09 PM.
