I need new line for my bait caster and was curious about what line type to get. I used 50lb braid last season but was  thinking about going for mono or flouro. I mostly Jig and crank, with the occasional spinner/chatterbait, and use a frog only a couple times a season. What do you guys recommend I get. Thanks

12-14 lb Big Game.

#12 Seaguar InvizX will work well for most applications, all-around fluorocarbon so to speak.

 

Copolymer for everyday fishing. Use the good stuff for tournaments.

12-16lb Sniper flouro depending on your waters.

Seguar makes good flourocarbon lines. I hated all the others. Sufix has sufix advance mono out. It's a copolymer. It has very little stretch and I really have to say it's more sensitive than flouro imho. The only thing is flouro is less visible. Sufix advance handles awesome. Try both.

Cabela's had Advance on sale today. I was gonna pic some up to try but then found some reviews on here where people complained about it feeling stiff and old after a few trips. I take it you haven't had that issue?

Haven't had it on long enough to comment. I have seen reviews where guys have used it all last year without issue .

No FC.  Life's too short.  By the time you find one you like you'll be too old to fish it.  Big Game has a very large following on this forum, so I expect it is very good.

 

If you're used to 50 pound braid, mono may disappoint because of its stretch, but it does cast very well.

I agree with @Hulkster. I use 12 pound Sufix Siege for everything except soft plastics and jigs.
