Yes it is used to troll a jig off the back of the boat, we to hold bottom in any were from 30 to 60 feet of water. Lays the jig nice and flat banging the bottom all the way to get the Bass.

I started using wire line because it got to deeper water without using as much line as the heavy test mono line. so at the time it was the best for trolling off the bottom. I didn't know (until this year) that braided line came in as heavy of a test as it does.

As a matter of fact, we use mono line leaders when striper fishing regardless of the lines on our pole. I'm not worried about a striper chomping the line, just trying to get my line down to them without using so much of it!

By the way, you do have to be aware that both braided line and wire line have no stretch to them. So if a big fish hits hard and your drag is too tight you could rip the hook right out of it's mouth....
