Of course, sometimes that's what you want, so for certain kinds of yarn, we mix fibres of different lengths
If you encounter wet conditions, like slippery rocks, mud, ice, or snow, you'll want to look for a combination of deep, well-spaced lugs and a sticky rubber that doesn't get too hard in colder temperatures
Yes, as I mentioned earlier, I use a pair of octopus-style hooks, tied in tandem, whenever I fish whole or plug-cut herring baits or whole anchovies
With the gorge you give out 10 to 15 feet of line, wait 30 seconds, and then gently retrieve the line (and hopefully the fish)
PROS AND CONS OF BRAID Pros Nearly no stretch Floats Higher knot strength Thinner diameter More abrasion resistant Cuts through vegetation Longer casts Highly sensitive Less memory Cons Highly visible Nearly no stretch Floats Digs into wood More expensive More prone to backlashes WHEN TO USE MONOFILAMENT FISHING LINE Most cranking and other treble-hook baits Typically when talking subsurface baits with treble hooks, mono will be the better option between it and braid (though fluorocarbon would win out if all three line types were considered)
