Default One more braided line question

First, the magic marker idea for fading was a good one. I will give
that a a try.

What braided line do you use and why?

Thanks

I use PowerPro because it works. It has good strength, it holds up well and
I like the way it casts. I've tried other lines, but keep coming back to
PowerPro. I use 10, 30 and 50 pound for my bassin' duties, 65 and 80 for
muskies.

Stren Super Braid. Its very smooth, casts well, and is very limp. I flip
with 50 lbo and 65 lb, and thorw crankbaits and spinnerbaits on 20 and 30
pound. I also like 30 pound for weightless plastics in light cover and open
water or around docks.

Yep, Usually 20lb braid. Medium Moderate St Croix crankbait rod. Works
great ripping through grassbeds. Not bad in the trees either. A slow
gently pull will usually retrieve a crankbait that gets embedded in s branch
by strightening the hooks. In open water I switch to mono on a spinning rod
though. I tried 30 lb and they just don't seem to cast well and get down
where I want them.
