I just picked up a mojo bass spinner bait rod and am planning on using it with 1/2 & 3/8 oz. spinnerbaits and Chatterbaits. So my question is what would be the best line to use for this kind of fishing?

I'm doing the same thing this summer and I'll be using braid with a mono leader. I imagine a lot of guys use straight mono as well.

I throw 12 lb yozuri hybrid, works great for this type of application. 

15-17 lb mono or fluoro or 30-40 lb braid + leader

Have the same rod and use it for the same applications. I use 15# seaguar red label and it seems to be perfect. If need be, the rod can double as a flipping/trig/crig rod.

I use 15lb Red Label. If I go night fishing I sometimes use braid (with no leader) bc i throw buzzbaits as well.

Ditto...I use the same combo for both also

I have been using 20-30lb braid for the last 2 years and have done well with spinnerbaits on that line. I cant say that the visibility of braid has been a reason i have gotten less bites and i fish pretty clear water. I would add a leader if i felt it necessary.

Absolutely true!!

pretty much...

15-17 lb mono or fluoro or 30-40 lb braid + leader

Why 30-40lb braid when 15-17lb mono is sufficient? Is this just a matter of diameter and the ability to spool more braid vice something that is actually easier to cast/use? Honest question, I'm new.

It's just a matter of preference. If the chatterbait or spinnerbait is being thrown into grass, the braid may help rip the bait free easier.

I use 12 to 15 lb Yo-Zuri hybrid now , used to be Suffix Elite in 12 to 15 lb never had a problem with neither.

15lb Invizx

I'm usually going with 14 lb Bucatini, 15 lb Fusilli or 17 lb Spiralini.

Are those Italian or something? LOL

12 cxx, no question. 15 if you really need something strong.

One of my best days ever spinnerbait fishing was when I had a rod spooled up with 10# fluoroclear because I was planning on jerkbait and crankbait fishing. So it can be done on lots of different line

Oh Sorry, those are all types of Pasta.

 

I must have misremembered the question . . .

 

It was late.

#12 Yo-Zuri Hybrid or Seaguar AbrazX

 

 

 

15lb Big Game for me. 

12# Berkley 100% Fluoro would be my choice.
