edit: it occurs to me that you probably mean that you have two MHF rods already spooled with 30# and 50# braid, and that the one that you'd use for these applications is the one that you have with you

This is why. Also, the cover I am fishing around makes a difference.

15# Berkley Big Game for everything but punching & frogging!

I like 15 lb Big Game but for Texas rigs I prefer a clear blue fluorescent line so I use 17 lb Trilene XL in cbf . Its the same diameter as 15 Big Game .
