20 lb Fireline.
30 lb or 50 lb PowperPro,
on occasion either 12 lb Trilene, or 12 lb Cajun Red Cast, pretty rare on that anymore, like almost never.
I do like P-Line 20lb test for anyplace there are Zebra Mussels.

20 lbs power pro (I've said it once and I'll say it again, seems as if my current spool is actually much much higher than 20lbs). (use this most of the time)

12 lbs berkley fluerocarbo (For weightless flukes/plastics in more open water)
12 lbs triline mono (for cranking, unless I'm using a big crank, then I'll tie it to the power pro).

I religiously use McCoy Mean Green Copolymer in 10 and 12 pound test.

Everyone else seems to like Power Pro.

And some folks also seem to like the Cajun stuff.

I think I will stick with the Mean Green and maybe pick up some Power Pro when I get a separate flippin' rod for the cabbage and thick vegetation.

Green 10-14 pound BPS Excel, or BPS Tourney Tough, both are great mono lines that won't break the bank. I haven't lost a fish due to line failure on either one of those lines, and they cast great.
