If you use mono for topwater, what brand do you like/use? What loop knot has proven best for you?
 like the man says...if you're swimming in the ocean and get bitten by a shark, its not a shark attack. You're in THEIR neighborhood. If you're at home in your shower, turn around and a shark is in there with you...THAT'S a shark attack

15# P-line CX Premium with improved clinch knot.
In memory of my childhood friend Dan Sterling, who taught me at an early age how to catch bream with a hand-line, and who unknowingly hooked me on fishing for life.

You know the old saying
If it floats, flys, or f___s it is always cheaper to rent!
You have to decide which is more important.

Trilene XT 12lb has a breaking strength of 20lb or something crazy like that....use a palomer knot...keep it simple.

McCoys Mean Green copolymer. Works GREAT for CBs, SBs, and topwater. I do not tie a loop knot, but diretly to the bait. Hope this helps.
Tight lines, keep safe and good luck.
