I don't use briaded line much, I find it a bit too troublesome to be a favorite for me, but I know that alot of folks praise it for fishin in heavy cover, where it would really shine. Pitch'n and Flippin would be the ideal time to use it, or when working around any heavy cover/structure. I did find a spool of Power Pro in my cubboard, but I forgot I had it. I'll stick to the co-polymers and mono's for now. Their easier on the equipment, and pocket book.

All I use for worms, jigs, C-rig and flipping-basically any lure that has a single hook and you have to actively set the hook-the exception being spinnerbaits and buzzbaits-for those I use mono.
The sensitivity is great and the toughness even better-I pulled a 20 lb. flathead catfish that hit a jig through a flooded treetop with 50 lb braid. I never would have boated it without using braid.

Bass Kicker, I use 50 lb. power pro for rats and buzzbaits. I hardly have any trouble with it in the pads and grass. Just make sure you feel the weight of the bass and don't strike right away. Sometimes they just hit the bait to stunn it. I also use it for the horny toad type baits.
