I like the braided for bottom bouncing in the Fraser. I personally like the Fireline and used to use the 30lb test all the time but I was always disapointed at least a few times a year because a good Spring would start peeling and eventually rip off because the line would bury into the spool. This summer I switched to 50lb Fireline on a Abu 7000 and man that the cat's bazoink. No more buried line. Any of the rare birdsnests are so easy to work out (mere seconds versus 10's of minutes). But holy crap is it ever scarey getting a swivel snag in faster water - bad, bad, bad. I carry a leather work glove for just the occation otherwise you can't break the line - it will cut thru your hand. I love the no stretch and I actually save enough money from not loosing as many bettys as I would if I were using mono that it pays for itself.
