decisions ,decesions? Whats a guy to do? Hard to change your tactics to try somthing new when the way your fishing works? Everyone has made some good points here. The question was distance which I got off of, but appreciate the comments. Here's what I would like to know. 6' medium action rod, not concerned about long casts. Small diameter line I use 6lb test. What type braided line should I try? I'll use the use the mono leader of 3'. Don't want a swival I beleive less hardware the better. Tie the lines together with a surgens knot? I have been using trilene xl low-vis-green. The past few years I'm thinking they have cut corners some where as It doesn't seem to preform as well as in the past.
