Am I the only one still using mono line?

big game works for me

Me too. For the money you cannot beat it. Strong!

Use better braid

[1Holeshot]

I have braid on a few rods but the only technique that I believe braid is 100% necessary for is throwing a frog. Everything else I can do fine with mono or copolymer.

I pretty much fall into this category.

I use Sufix mono almost exclusively. I just put braid on two of my spinning reels to try some float -n- fly rigs. I have mono leaders on those. I never saw the need to use anything but mono and I've been bass fishing for 55+ years.

I use braid for some things and monofil (copolymer) line for others. Tried Fluorocarbon line and didn't see anything to gain from using it.

I still use Sunline Super Natural mono for several applications. Buzzbaits, topwaters, any surface bait or bait I want hold at or near surface.
I throw 25# with buzzbaits, Smaller diameter than 20# Trilene. 20# with everything else. Same diameter as 17# Trilene. Better abrasion resistance. Good limpness, and very low memory even as you get down into the spool.

Thanks for the info on Sunline Super Natural! I've been using 12 lb on a baitcaster Drop Shot rig since about mid-summer 2021, and like it a lot. But I have not really beat it severely to determine whether it's tough or not, since DS really isn't very tough on line in our weedy lake. It works better for pitching to docks and pilings than the typical spinning setup and give me more chance of boating the fish.
