I use Berkley 20lb mono right now on my jig rod, 7ft BPS Extreme w/ Shimano Curado 6.2:1.  I have fished jigs for about 2 years now and I know I can get better at it.

What are the advanage of braid over mono?  Will I FEEL more with braid?  Detect bites better?  Besides breaking strength over mono what other advice.

Mono can stretch up to 20 - 30 percent.  Braid does not stretch.  You will feel more.  You will detect more bites, especially with a jig.  And your hooksets will be more solid which is a good thing with a jig, but it can be a bad thing if you fish crankbaits or jerkbaits with braid because you can rip the lure out of their mouths. Braid is easier than mono for a fish to see, but where I fish a jig this really doesn't matter.  Some people will add flluorocarbon leaders to their braid, since the fluoro is virtually invisible in water.  

If you do a search you will see a plethora of information on this subject covering every question you could ask.
