I use braid probably 95% of the time unless i'm walking a bait in clear water, in which case I will add about 3 feet of big game 20lb mono in clear

I have always used 65# power pro and never had a single problem with it. When the color starts to wear off the line, flip the line on your spool so you can get fresh line without buying a new spool.

Thats a great idea flipping the line. I never thought of that.
Thanks
