4-8lb Braid or Flouro this year?
I mostly do finesse fishing with jigs and smaller baits and have had a lot of success with 4lb flouro these past years. I've never tried braid before but I'm wondering if its worth giving it a shot.
I really don't like the idea of having to mix braid + flouro for snags, it seems to defy the whole point of having a stronger line with the braid, and its extra work every time you lose a bait.
I'm wondering if theres any reason I'm overlooking that makes braid the obvious choice. Would tying the bait directly on the braid be ok too? If it snags on something would pulling on the braid make it break at the knot point similar to flouro?
Any advice is welcome!
