Hey all,
Merry Christmas for starters. Second I've been doing to light line float fishing lately with a baitcaster and 12lb mono. I tried to run 8lb. in my chronarch and had less than great results. Bird's nests every cast, I think that light of line is just beyond my skill level when combined with lightweight jigs and floats. I was thinking of going with like 14lb. fireline because it floats (equal to 6lb mono), but then I realized that might be too small for the chronarch as well. I really don't want to run any larger than 20lb braid because my rods a 10'6" 4-10lb. and the 20lb fireline is equal to 8lb mono. My question is, has anyone had good results running 14lb or 20lb. fireline with a baitcaster and lightweight float/jig setups? Myabe I just need to tune my skills more, but I was having a world of trouble trying to cast float/jigs with 8lb trilene.
thanks, and again happy holidays.
