- Today I'm taking you through whether or not YOU should use braided fishing line. I've seen a lot of opinions out there. However, I'll go through some facts about braid and what it REALLY is, the advantages/disadvantages of braid, and how I use braid in my bass fishing arsenal. I'll discuss brands, give you a closer look, and talk about things that most UA-cam videos simply skip over!

I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.
Understatement of the year: Debo: "I've got a few different rods and reels." 🤣
My wife asked me the other day, "How many fishing rods do I have"? I told her about 12 that I actually use. She asked why I need so many and I asked her, "How many shoes do you have?"
I use to have just my spinning rod and my fly rod. Then they were stolen last salmon season. Now I have 8 spinning combos, and 4 fly rod set ups.. they all have a purpose, or just feel damn good
These types of videos helped me a ton when I was getting into fishing last year. Definitely a lot of good points. One word of caution with thinner braid would be that it can cut through skin pretty easy. Use caution when pulling knots tight or landing fish. Another great viDebo bud!!
YES
Man it hurts. Cut myself a few times on 15-20lb braid. It’s the main thing I don’t like about braid, although I will still use it.
@@Howwerelivingfishing no joke! I hadn't messed with braid much until last year. I put 9lb braid on a spinning reel and learned quickly to be extra careful.

This helps cause there is so many combinations of line and lures a person could go crazy trying to figure them out. This takes a lot of the guess work out of the equation .
I use braid on every reel I own as a main line. The distance you get is not even close to using all Mono/Fluoro. Now it hurt me today at the pier, I lost a very big Snook, at least 35-40 inches, because my leader wasn't long enough and it cut my braid on the pier piling! Thanks Debo!
Braid on a spinning set up is definitely the way to go !! Another great informative video
"A few different rods and reels" 🤣👏
Here in the Netherlands it’s easy… if it’s Pike, Zander or Perch always braid. All you need to think about is is if you wanna use a pike proof leader and the line thickness.
Awesome info as always and easy to follow. Thanks
Always great content!! Just wanna say thank you for sharing your experience with us. It makes a world of difference.
It’s always nice to get more info on different gear and such. I learned a few things. THANKS DEBO Keep it up!
Always on point with your vids
Keep up the vids, your tips and gear reviews have helped me improve my results bass fishing.
Appreciate the video Debo. Great info as usual. Thanks man! ✌🏻🎣
Definitely do more of these videos. I’ve only been fishing regularly for a few years and it’s always great to see the logic behind what other folks are doing and why. I just recently went to braided lines and am still feeling out the details.
Love your content!
So wise Debo. Thanks for all the pros and cons for each line. Great examples too.
Good reminders! These types of videos helped me out a ton when I was really getting into fishing, especially with baitcasters
thanks for the info all of your videos have so much helpful info in them.
Great video and extremely helpful, thanks Debo
Debo, you’re info videos are the best. I have learned a ton. Started using braid to fluoro after watching videos just like this from you. On the braid train & not looking back. I love it. Keep up the awesome work. It is always appreciated 👊
Love the video man keep up the great work and great info
Very helpful! Keep it up, Debo!
Great video, these are very helpful.
Old school Debo, just sitting down and giving a master class. Love it.
Basically the same way I run my setups, but great content and glad to see your ideas and opinions on the topic. Thanks Debo!
Nice vid. I'm just getting started and man, all of the options for baits, lines, rigs and techniques can be overwhelming. Keep em coming Debo.
Definitely enjoy this type of informative video. Keep up the great work sir!!!!!
I think this type of video is very helpful for new anglers they sure helped me a bunch the last few years. Nicely done as always Debo
Just love these tips and tricks. Please keep doing them.
I found this very helpful and would like to see more of these type of videos. I started using braid on some rods. I kept losing bass on one rod which had mono and was action was moderate with to much stretch in the line and action in rod. I’m a new viewer and have spent lots of time watching and learning. Thanks for your content.
Great video and very informative always appreciate your knowledge and willingness to share keep ‘em coming 🎣🎣🔥🔥
These types of videos help the beginner and the rest of us too. Keep up the good work. Really enjoy all your videos. Thanks
This is for sure a helpful format!
An explainer on power and action of rods would be huge.
These types of videos are perfect; keep them coming! I use braid to a leader for my finesse fishing and straight braid for frogging.
Debo this was excellent I fished for years and you can always use a refresher on pros and cons of anything I think the video is great 👍🏿
Your reviews always help buddy...
thanks Debo since I started watching you this is how i have my set ups
i caught my first Bass this year using braid to a leader on a Jig
Debo, The video help me alot to understand about when and where to use braid. Thanks alot!
Great information I really appreciate your channel.
Great video, very helpful content. Thanks!
These help me a lot. Just gives me more ideas and things to try to catch more fish.
Awesome help or reminder!
Thanks for the video. These types of videos are really helpful in trying to figure out gear, especially for us newbies.
Love these videos! I am wanting to try braid on a baitcaster and have it on a spinning reel already.
Loved the video. After a 35 year break this helps a lot. Thanks.
Very helpful video keep it up!!
Yes, these are a great, helpful type of video. Please continue! Just starting to use braid (mainly finesse spinning setups) and so far believe the benefits outweigh the disadvantages! Thanks for all the great videos!
Thanks Debo! This helps a ton. Years ago I fished a lot of crappie and small mouth and all I had was a Shimano Sedona 2500 with 30lb braid and a flouro leader on a drop shot. Only recently getting into bait casting and am very interested in frogging. This is very helpful indeed!
This was a great video. I would love to see more like this. I also would love to see what types of rods (lengths, actions) would you pair with what types of lures. Thank you
Video was very full of helpful content,have always benefitted from your videos,thanks for sharing 🎣
I have recently started fishing more braid to leader, and its helped a lot. Thank you for the advise. So far j have 2 of my 5 rods braid to leader.
Very much like these videos. Been out of fishing for about 15 years so much stuff has changed. Nice learning about stuff before just throwing money at it.
Thanks man, just got into baitcaster reels, and this helped. Also braid on spinning reel always here.
Yes, very helpful for someone that's fished forever. Nice to have others opinions and you learn new things from others that can help.
Yessir very helpful. Fishing line is the biggest headache for me . So many options it's overwhelming. Thanks for the awesome content. Love all your vids
Awesome video debo! Love the fish food for thought!
Great video! All the info I wanted to know.
I think you should keep doing these types of videos Debo. It’s good to hear both the advantages and disadvantages of a certain piece of gear or technique, etc.
I also laughed to myself when you said “I’ve got a few different rods and reels.” 🤣
Braid on spinning gear was a game changer this year for me. For all the reasons shown. 15-20 lb to 12-15 flouro.
Braid to a fluorocarbon leader is my go to for spinning reel set ups! Absolutely love it!
Great breakdown on pros and cons.
I enjoyed this video a lot and good information. I’m newer to FW fishing but have experience with brackish/SW. I’ve only dealt with braid on spinning tackle. I’ve got the baitcast but haven’t spoiled it yet so it’s good to know what a beginner should try.
Debo, I found this video to be very useful. I have never used braid, so this helped understand when it would help.
Great help. I love using braid with a leader.
Really really helpful for us guys that have never used braid!
Great info Debo! I think some B roll footage would really help with this type of video, but the format is good as is!
I like this information. Entertaining and informative.
I enjoy these types of videos sprinkled in the mix
Glad you made this, i feel my braid is scaring the fish, havent caught anything since i switched
Good video when I started bait casting I used mono per one of your videos. I now use braid with leaders
Love this type of video Debo. Thanks for a great breakdown man!
I only have 3 rods right now and use straight braid on my non-cranking rod. I mainly use moving lures and don't worry so much about fish being line shy on a swim jig. I also only have the 3 reels so I want to be versatile and switch to frog fishing on that rod when the mood suits me. My spinning setup is actually also straight 10lb braid. I'm not a big believer (yet) in fish caring about seeing the line. I should try a leader, though, and see how that goes.
Good video!! You are a really good teacher!!
Great information, thank you.
Love this type of video. I started with baitcast reels during the pandemic. I have tried several things, but at this point I have braid to fluorocarbon on all my setup (both spinning and baitcast) except my frog rod. It works for me and I have confidence in it at this point. My favorite braid is the Suffix 832, but I recently tried the Strike King tour braid (found it on sale at the DFW Scheels). I have it on my spinning set ups. I like the way it casts and I love the suction cup on the spool. It makes getting it on the reel a snap!
Yes Debo, this type of video help people out. Me personally, I used to run braid to leader on all of my combos but have started using straight flourocarbon on a few this year. I think braid is great for beginners to learn to cast with
Another great video! I really like the approach to this subject. I was going to do this subject this winter as I will be recovering from open heart surgery. Thanks for the information! Keep it up!
Thanks for the info. Still trying to figure line out.
Literally the best fishing channel on UA-cam, just got into using a baitcaster and fishing for bigger game fish, I used to only ice fish, and this channel has helped more than anything! Would love to see a video on leaders! Wire, fluoro, etc.. keep it up dude! Thanks!
Great vid. Very informative. Debo when are you doing another catch and cook?
This very ;helpful. I grew up before flouro and braid were a thing. I'm ready to try some braid on my spinning now.
Totally helpful. Gonna start using mono instead of flouro for the topwater. Never thought of that. And I love yellow braid, I’m old and it’s easier to see
Let's go baby good vid man keep up the good work like always. Also I use straight hi viz color braids no leaders just straight braid and haven't ever had any problems catching fish
That was awesome. I don't have a ton of experience with braid. I do have it on my spinning reels with a leader. Just put some on a casting reel. You are correct about the sensitivity. What a difference.
Very helpful, Thank You!
Hey Debo great video, you are in books "The Fishing Professor" I've learned a ton and greatly appreciate your down to basics approach on all the subjects. In this video the example of losing your lures while casting with braid. That's me. Multiple times. I thought my knot tying was poor. But maybe it was the lack of give while using braid. Thanks again for your knowledge and time. Great class Professer Debo!
Definitely helpful great insight
Very helpful in that I have fished 55 years. My experience with braid has been impossible birdsnests! I’ll try it within your suggestions. Thx Debo. Go Hawks!
This is great content. I personally use braid most of the time, as the sensitivity is unsurpassed and it does not have issues with memory. I typically run a 4 foot fluorocarbon leader tied on with a uni/jam knot. I’m sure that there are disadvantages to my system, but it gets me fish in the boat. Keep up the great work Debo!
Very helpful. I'm still very new at fishing I use braid a lot. But I still do a lot of things wrong, so these videos are helpful.
Thanks for your thoughts. Usually run braid to leader on spinning outfits except micro guided rods. Yep 10 to 15 lb test to a 6-8lb leader! Thanks again!
Great viDebo. I’m currently using braid to a leader on all my setups simply because I don’t get out that often (2-3 times a month) right now and I want to avoid line memory. If I ever get to the point where I’m out 1-2 a week I’ll consider going straight fluoro on a baitcaster setup. Definitely helped me to start with the Trilene XL when I started using a baitcaster… never had to cut out a backlash.
Thanks for the informative video
As a new fisherman I found this video very helpful. I only used braid once while saltwater fishing and I can attest to braid snapping and watching a rig fly into the ocean.
these kind of videos help me a lot I have started using braid with fluro leaders because of your videos. My problem is finding time to get to the waters lol
These are my favorite types of videos!!!
good information on fishing line and uses
Yes, keep them coming!
Great video. I've been using braid to leader for a couple of years (I'd go straight braid for frogging if I did much of it) and the big difference is casting. I'm using 20lb Power Pro on my spinning gear with an 8lb fluro leader most of the time, and I use 50-80lb braid on my baitcasters. Always nice to hear what you're doing is similar to someone else and for similar reasons.
This video came at just about the perfect time because I am going to be going through my rods and reels to put new line on. This helps so much because I wasn't sure if I should do braid or monofilament.
Just another thought have you tried the Berkley fireline. This super strong and smooth. I use it when I build fishing rods to undertie the raps. It holds up to a lot of abuse.
Great video!!! Thanks!
