Braid(s)

After beginning to think about how I want my new Frog Stik to be picture-perfect, I have decided on the rod, a St.Croix Legend Tournament Bass "Slop-N-Frog", almost decided on the reel and are speechless on the line. I know I need braid for froggin' - but how heavy, what brand, how much?

I will mainly be fishing in floating pads, maidencane, hyacinth, and milfoil. Nothin' too bad, nothin' too easy though either... So, I was thinking to start with something not too big, as I have never used braid. Something like 20-35 pound test. Power Pro? Fireline? Suffix? Need tips!!!

I also plan to use other topwaters like Sammy's, Jimmy's, Spook's, buzzbaits, etc. Will fish see the braid floating on the surface when you are using twitch baits like Spook's? Does braid even float? Again, need tips!!!

In consideration...
