Make sure you put a fluro leader. Doesn't matter as much when fishing muddy waters like Big Lake, but will make a huge difference when fishing clear ponds for bass.

Can't beat braid, you can feel every little bite on the line. If you ever try to go back to mono it will feel like you are fishing with a rubberband. Another plus, I fish marshes for bass all the time, braid cuts through lillies like a knife, can't beat it man.

thats what I wanted to hear... I heave heard from several different people that if your spool has holes in it (which all of mine do) to not even worry about putting 2-5 yards of mono to seat the PP or braided line. Im going to get some PP tonight and just put it in one of the holes and fill up the spool..... I'll be leaving bright and early tomorrow morning to make an afternoon/evening bass trip... i'll take plenty of pics and post them up on Tuesday when I return (due to not having a computer and i cant upload pics form my BB)
