So what's your favorite general cranking line, if your lines vary just say why.

 

And include your poundage!

#30 832.

Trilene Big Game mono, 8# or 10#.

 

Tom

30# PP

Depends on the bait, rod & application.

 

Generally, this applies for me.

 

Glass rod, deep baits - Braid

 

Graphite or Composite rod, shallower baits - Mono

 

A-Jay

14lb stren original I genrally only throw squarebills.

16lb bass pro flurocarbon xps. I went from cheap tribune monofilament to braid after a year or two of fishing. I just started paying more attention to my line, and have floor on my cranking and shaky head combos and haven't had any problems with this line, however some line conditioner helps with casting. Especially with those lighter cranks. 

12lb P-Line 100% Fluorocarbon gets the majority of the work. Sometimes when fishing lipless cranks I may go to 15lb P-Line 100% Fluoro when I want to keep the bait up above the grass and then there are times where I throw all my cranks on 30/8 Suffix 832 braid when I want to rip my baits out of the grass.

12 lb invisix

10-15 CXX.  Personally, I don't ever see the need to use braid, and I crank weeds 95% of the time.

30lb PP

#12 Sunline Super Natural

15# fluoro or 15# mono depending on where I'm fishing.

12# Yo Zuri

Mike

12lb Seaguar InvizX

Deep cranking open water, nothing larger dia. than 10# mono. In and around cover, the same line I'd use for any other bait.

12 pound fluro is first choice then 12 or 14 pound mono

The recently re-introduced Berkley Iron Silk is a great cranking line.   10 lb is a great deep cranking line.   17 or 20 is a great square bill/rattle trap line.

14lb stren original I genrally only throw squarebills.

 

This or XL.. I generally use 12# though. I'm think about using 8# fluoro for finesse cranking applications. I've heard good things about InvizX and XL 100% Fluoro for spinning reels, so I'm gonna try one of those.

12lb yo zuri.

Occasionally 10#.

I just depends on what kind of mood I am in and the water conditions but I use both FC and mono, either 10lb or 12lb.  No braid for cranks....

Last year, I used 10# Invizx. It's expensive line... but it broke on me several times in mid-cast - causing me to immediately get still and look around to see where my bait splashed into the lake - then troll over and pick it up.

This year, I'm re-spooling with 12# Sunline Sniper. Hoping for better results.

40# braid or 40# braid with a leader depends on Rod and situation I am in. Either way there is always braid.

Tight lines

12lb Berkley 100% has never done me wrong

10 Mustad Thor or Big Game
