FLIPPIN': When to use Braid Vs. Fluorocarbon?

[DJD]

All in all, use what you have the most confidence in. If you like mono, just use 20-25 lb mono for your flippin and pitchin and you'll be fine. It's all in what you have confindence in so you don't second guess yourself when the bite occurs. I think fishing can get way too technical. Look at Rick Clunn, he uses one size/action rod (7ft. Hvy Action) for all applications. Just another example that it's all about what you have confidence in.

I agree anglers can get caught up in so many technical issues based upon marketing and what the pro's use.
Remember the K.I.S.S. method.

I'm with Col Forbin here. Learned a valuable lesson last year flippin buck brush on KY. Flouro is useless once it nicks. 20lb P-line cost me a might large check one day last spring. Anytime I'm flippin the nasty its 25-30lb big game. That stuff will hold up. I've since switched to invisix and like it better than Pline but I'm not taking any chances on flippin with it either. Big game from now on.
