If it matters, I’m looking for 8 lb test and fishing for walleye. Any other info or pointers about using fluoro would help me a lot.

Would switching from 20 lb test to 20lb braid affect my fishing?

Using 50 lb trilene test. I have no idea what mono or flouro is, so i can’t honestly tell you what it is. Lately, i’ve been eying a pack of powerbro braid lately. It looks a lot thinner.

I mostly fish for bass in pretty murky water. However, occasionally i go trout fishing with the same reel.

I am not going after the state record I just want to catch some stripers. Oh, and the place I will be fishing is an inlet with a strong tide.

And if the reel says it goes to 12 lb. test, can I use a heavier test?
