SDRoosterrr Posted January 30, 2016 Share Posted January 30, 2016 Going to use braid on downriggers to 12 lb weights. Any suggestions as to what pound test or brand? Thank you for any input. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SDRoosterrr Posted February 4, 2016 Author Share Posted February 4, 2016 Maybe I should rephrase, does anybody use braid? If not, what are advantages of wire? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KnottyGirl Posted February 4, 2016 Share Posted February 4, 2016 Had 250 lb power pro on my old boat. It was quite with no wire whine, and your able to put on as much line as you want. I wouldn't be surprised if snagged you would rip a rigger off before that line breaks lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeaCatMich Posted February 7, 2016 Share Posted February 7, 2016 I have a 300 yard spool of 250# PowerPro that I was going to use on a couple of downriggers where the wire needed to be replaced. I then went with new riggers and decided not to use it. Would sell for a lot less than I paid. $40 shipped if you want it. Enough to do 4 downriggers with 200'+ each. PM or email me ([email protected]) if interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
