Title: Fishing Line
Post by: OneBlade on May 26, 2023, 07:11 AM
What's your favorite fishing line brand/style for your crappie fishing poles?  I've used Berkley Crystal Fireline 8 or 12lb for my main line and then 8lb fluoro (don't remember brand) for liters and such. But I've noticed the Fireline has started splitting (maybe it's old?) and looking for guidance you all on your line setups.  I like fireline or braid for mainline it seems to have higher strength but sometimes I get lazy and tie the jig right to that main line -- wondering if anyone has a setup they like that involves just 1 line and no tieing liters.

I use 20 lb Powerpro braid for mainline and 8 lb Sunline FC Sniper flourocarbon for the leaders on the long rods.  For my 8 ft jig pole I use 12 lb nanofil and 8 lb FC Sniper flourocarbon leader.  For my slip bobber it's straight 6 lb sniper.  I'm thinking of switching leader material to 10 lb

Suffix 832 braid for main line in 10lb. Either Pline or Yozuri floro in 6lb for rigs

on my Omegas I use 6lb berkley sensation clear line or 6lb. P-line floro clr used to love Seagar floro 6lb was easy to cast and no memory but after that brand was out for a while they realized how popular it was and the price more than tripled :angry4:
