[QUOTE="shorthairsrus, post: 267467, member: 219"] I would change line --- PP makes more than the old green holding water line --- they make a smooth as silk line too. For casting jigs i would think that would more of a huckleberry. Its going to fray more imo so you have to retie more often. Spidy wire and Berkley fireline -- when i was fishing bass and they first came out - they sucked imo -- fire line was the worst for breaking due to fray. Fray was caused from the knot bumbing up agains reeds, catttails, ka-bumba, trees, pads, dock posts you name it. Worm fishing those lines were even worse as your texas rigged weight would rub the color out of line till it was white and then one quick bump you snapped off. -- everybody used em -- but you learned to re-tie often. PP eliminated the re-tie -- and to be honest i never went back to anything else. I am sure all of them have improved greatly. Mono your knot would crack or get cut but it took a lot of casting and mono had a bell curve - it actually got better then worse before you had to re-tie. good fishing Short [/QUOTE]
