Personally, I would use some 6lb mono as backing and tie on some 20lbs braid. I just like the sensitivity of braid over mono.

Its amazing how much money i save on lures using braided line. Yesterday i has such a bad snag and I was almost cutting my hand with the line I was pulling it so hard. I ended up wrapping the line around a stick and bending the mepps aglia hook off the log until it was straight and the lure popped off. Id say 20lb braid can stand up to alot more than 20lbs of force. And if you aare thinking that you arent catching anything because of the visibility of ur line you just throw on a leader...

People fish for say salmon and trout with fly rods and 4 pound leaders (I know I'm one of them) because it allows one to use even the smallest flies, and while you do lose a few fish, you can land many more then if you just kept yourself to the larger flies.

Same here to Jim. Never went higher then eight. The key is the drag.Even salmon doesn't need more then about 8-10lb test. Unless your trying to drag it through the water with your line. I routinely use 8lb line year around to land everything from panfish to salmon running in the river.
