witch one is your favorite kind
depends on where im fishing, but i usually have a couple poles strung up with different lines. i usually fish ponds with a lot of snags, so my go to line in these situations is def a heavy braid. while bass fishing last week with a wacky rigged senko, i hooked and managed to pull an old wood pallet buried in the mud. now if i am fishing very clear waters, i usually use vanish transition, so i dont spook the fish. what kind of waters are you usually fishing, and what are you targeting?
bass is my main specices and its usally any kind of water murky clear stained cloudy im thinking of just getting floro and braid get 2 spolls for ever reel and string it up with ether 10-15 braid 6-10 floro
I have used Fireline since it first came out. Started using Power Pro last year and for some things it works great, some it doesn't. Seem to get wind knots a lot with it but it could just be me. If I had a choice Fireline would be on my reel for both fresh and salt. I always tie a florocarbon leader on them. I go through a lot of floro each year but go a few years with braided line on my reels. the floro leader is strictly psycological for me as I would probable catch the same # without it.
I started two years ago w/ a switch to 15# Power Pro for freshwater applications. After a full year of trying my best, I gave-up the ghost. The hardest part for me was knot tying and loss of action & feel in my lure presentation.
This spring I took the advice of a co-worker & switched to P-line Fluroclear: economical & strong. I even stretched the $ a bit more & filled my reels 1/3rd w/ a matching mono diameter, uni-to-uni, then finish the spool w/ the Fluroclear. The feel is back and I've had a minimal amout of break-offs as a result.
I've been a staunch supporter of Berkely/Trilene brands for years, and was quite suprised by this P-line brand. My advice: Don't be afraid to try something different.

usually mono on spinning gear, braid on my baitcaster
ive been using power pro for fresh water for the past 5 or 6 years and aside from ultra light for trout and crappies, i havent found anything i couldnt do with it. And as far as abrasion resistance we have yanked some truly huge carp and catfish out of some god awfull snags that mono would not stand a chance in.
