Fireline sux - too many breakoffs at the knot

Mono is great to handle, but is easily nicked up and breaks off. Mono also has thick diameters in the 20+ lbs test range

Braid is very strong and can last multiple seasons. Braid can be almost impossible to untangle in a baitcaster backlash. It takes some practice to keep your braid tangle-free.

My favorite line is the Spiderwire Stealth. Has teflon in it and runs smooth through the rod guides.
