When the fleas show up thin diameter line will load up. I run 80lb braid not for strength, but because it’s similar in diameter to 30lb mono which makes fleas a non issue.
Friend of mine wanted to get his teenage son and 81 year old grandfather out. Put my buddy in a stand in my side yard, the other to in a ground blind in my foodplot out back.
Ten minutes in this guy showed up at 20 yards. Poor kid missed it. Hoping something comes by for him before dark.
