I just bought my first flyfishing rod and reel, now I’m trying to get it set it up. Can I simply use braided or superbraided regular fishing line for my backing or do I have to use a backing-specific type of line?

What is the best braided fishing line? I fish for bass and pike mostly, but the girlfriend likes to fish for catfish. So, a line that would be optimal for these fish? I dont really care for spiderline. Do you guys like stren Superbraid, Fireline?

I have become rather fond of using braided fishing line, but have found it rather difficult to achieve a clean cut extra line. The line seems to fray before cutting, anyone have any recommendations??
