Braid Question??
I really like original PP and PP super slick, buuut switching to braid probably won't help you much, FC is more abrasion resistant than braid anyway, might be something other than your line causing your break-offs what lb test was breaking on you? What cover were you fishing? Was you drag correctly set?

Fishing My First Bass Tournament Since 1987
From my experience it seems that bass in muddy water like hard cover like wood and rocks more than stuff like grass and pads and won't move as far to get a bait. So maybe you could try some square bill crankbaits around the wood,

It's Time To Change Your Line!!!!
Catch and Grease replied to IneedAnewScreenName-983750's topic in Fishing Rods, Reels, Line, and KnotsBacking is when you go to the store and buy something like a bulk spool of really cheap mono that's junk and fill your spool halfway or more then tie that to your good line and fill the rest of your spool up. Thus saving you money by using less of the good line!

It's Time To Change Your Line!!!!
Catch and Grease replied to IneedAnewScreenName-983750's topic in Fishing Rods, Reels, Line, and KnotsYou say its 20+ trips on a spool but your spool is gonna get low very quick cutting off 15 yards every trip... Then you have to put on more backing and that's tedious. I use braid and it last forever and then some haha I just check the line for Knicks every so many cast
