PowerPro braided fishing line and bass fishing
Hey group,
I've been using PowerPro (15 lb test) braided fishing line for sal****er fishing and it works GREAT! Has anyone been using it for bass fishing in freshwater? If you have, what have been the results. Catch more or less fish? Thanks in advance for any replies! Halon |

If you have, what have been the results. Catch more or less fish? You really haven't been on this group long have you? I've been a VERY vocal proponent of PowerPro for years. I use the 10 and 50 pound on just about all of my reels and find it to work great. While some may feel that the visibility of the line can reduce the number of strikes, I've found that I catch more fish because I can feel the bite and get the fish out. I'm sure there's some that might argue with me, but that's all right. :) -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |

As a semi-beginner, it has helped me a lot to feel just what my lure is doing, and what the bottom is like. I still use mono in some cases, but the PowerPro is my preferred line. I would definitely say it has helped me catch more fish. |

The best thing about mono is that you always get some free when you renew
your Bassmaster subscription. -- Bob Rickard (AKA Dr. Spinnerbait) www.secretweaponlures.com --------------------------=x O'))) "Henry Hefner" wrote in message ...

I put braided/superlines in a group along with dynamite - neither gives the
bass a fighting chance. Regards, Warren "Ken" wrote in message ... Hey group, I've been using PowerPro (15 lb test) braided fishing line for sal****er fishing and it works GREAT!

Huh? Why would a tourney pro want to give the prey a fighting chance?

I understand the concept of a "fighting chance", but I think that when I'm guiding, or fishing for money, the fish don't deserve a fighting chance. I figure that they've got all the chance they get when they decide to bite or not. Plus, if there's any toothy critters around, do you want to donate that $17 Lucky Craft Pointer? -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |

Forget the fighting chance bit... but I've given PowerPro its' fair shake. I
do admit liking it better than the other "superlines", but I still prefer good ole Stren myself. I still hvae a couple of rods spooled with PP, and will continue to use it until it's worn out, which will probably be a very loonnggg time from now, but will not buy anymore. I bought this spool for the trip to Florida, but all of my fishing was done with 12lb mono and I never lost a fish due to a break off. Even with the fish that I had to go through the weeds to get, PP would probably have resulted in a broken rod if I would have tried to horse them through. As far as toothy critters are concerned, I don't have to worry about that... until the NWC that is. :-) I have ran into another mystery fish again this year too! Maybe I'll pluck that thing out with this PP! -- Charles Summers Secret Weapon Lures http://www.secretweaponlures.com "Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers" wrote in message ... "go-bassn" wrote in message ...
