You need to switch to braid. no stretch. no worries.

Good call...Mike and I had discussion of spooling up some larger reels w/braid after losing those fish...it may be time, but old habits die hard...specially when you ARE an old habit!!...LOL!!...

I think I showed you the one an only (so far) rig I have braid on...Immediately noticed less stretch in working a top-water twitch-lure...less input...more action...me likey!!
