I know a lot of Bass fisherman use fluorcarbon line, but most in saltwater use it as leader material. I Bought a lews Speed spin for wading. I spooled the braided spool with 15lb power pro. But the regular I was thinking about using 12lb fluoro. I never tried casting it before are there any problems with it?

You will have less issues with line twist on the flouro line but more than braid due to the line memory. I personally use Pline 100% flouro and have never had any issues but don't use it in salt. I use it for bass fishing when I need applications that calls for finesse. The zero/low visibility is the main reason why.

I fish with artificials only now and I go straight Flouro (Seaguar 12 Lb).

I have no issues with it.


The only time I use braid is when Im casting a topwater lure, since braid floats and doesn't sink.
