Sniper is a fine line and a better value, but if price isn't an issue...Tatsu is THE BOMB! For treble hook lures and especially jerkbaits, the pros recommended monofilament. I use Sunline Super Natural. Note: I have been experimenting with a variety of lines and have decided to stay with Yo-Zuri Hybrid as my primary brand. The closest 2nd is Izorline, another professional favorite.

My buddy from Florence spooled up brand new line this weekend against my recommendation. After a few hours he respooled. The line has ABSOLUTELY NO ABRASION RESISTANCE. It was pitiful.

On a river, or at least on the Tennessee River, the main variable is water release (current and volume). By best day ever coincided with a rapidly rising barometer, post-front.WOW!

As a general response, this Forum is "Family Friendly". That is a standard we will always support.I like darker colors, military style. However, your color choice will have NOTHING to do with your your fishing success.
