Most people will tell you 30-40lb braided line. I personally use 30lb Power Pro Super Slick V2 on my 10' rod, which has a 5K Shimano Saragosa on it. I used to fish regular Power Pro Super Slick, but the new stuff holds up better. I'm fishing NJ, the north and south fork of LI, and the LI sound with that setup.

Jay in the Bay Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 30-40 lb. Sufix 832 Power Pro is crap. Ravens52988, drumbum and VanStaalSteve 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Halieus Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 I personally wouldn't go near an inlet without 50lb test line. For open beaches 30lb is perfect. As far as brands go, I've used Suffix 832 and Spiderwire Ultracast Invisibraid and liked them a lot. Right now I'm using J-Braid and I like that as well. I'd avoid Spiderwire Stealth and PowerPro (*member formerly known as 'Always_NoFo') Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CoffeeHangover Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 Never had any trouble with suffix 832, so I haven't tried anything else. Might try jbraid if I need to respool this summer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coastalfreak Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 How is Cabela's Ripcord Pro? I have it on my freshwater setup, but it's my first time using braided line so I don't know what is good or not.

Robbiethao10 Posted May 16, 2019 Report Share Posted May 16, 2019 Powerpro has never failed me. Braid is all the same unless you go buy the expensive stuff. It’s more the person than the gear. 40lb is what I use. Wouldn’t go under 30lb though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
