Hi, I've been frog fishing for 2yrs, but not sure if I could be using a better braid for my Abu Garcia REVO ROCKET.I started the year out with Sufix 832 at 65lb but it seemed to dig into itself on the spool. It there a better brand or another poundage I should use?

I like the braids that you can feel the "thread" like Power Pro or Stren. If your not in super heavy cover or pads, 40 or 50 pound would be fine to use as well. If you can spool the braid with some tension and get it on nice and tight then it digs less. I haven't ever had a problem using the two mention even as small as 30 and it digging on a regular basis, maybe after pulling a snag loose but after a cast or two it is good as new.

Ok thanks, I'll try spooling on with more tension. I know for sure I didn't use a lot when I put it on.

Get some Sunline FX2 Froggin & Flippin in 60 lb!

I use 30lb Berkley braid for jigs and T-rigs. I love the stuff...strong, smooth and no digging issues.
