I have been fishing Weiss Lake for a number of years now and I have used flourocarbon with great results. Im thinking about using braid this year, but I think the bass might see the line and that will cause me to get less strikes.The water color is stained and has sort of a yellow tint to it. The reason I want to use braid is because I am starting to fish grass more often. Last year I used 20 pound Vicous Elite Flourocarbon with good results. I think braid would cutt the grass better and allow me to get a better hookset. I just need some of yalls opinion on this subject.
Braid will cut the grass better and will give you solid hooksets because of the no-stretch attribute of braid. However, if what you are using has given you "great results", then why change?
If you are fishing grass, I assume thick vegetation, braid is a no brainer. Time of year is crucial in this as well, as water clarity is a direct result, although I do not know the specifics of your area.

Depends on how thick the grass is..I always go 10 pound mono or 10 pound flouro P Line...I only use braid if I have to..I'd have to see the structure myself before giving an opinion..They do see the line..and you may get less bites..I only use braid if I have to.
Braid or flourocarbon??
