Two-Pound Test Line
I am not familiar with the brands of line that you mentioned...the bass pro product is doing fine for me so I have no reason to try any other, or add a leader. However, if I could see a benefit to changing, I would. I make jigs with #6/#8 fine wire hooks, and can usually pull off a snag with the two pound test, while straightening or bending the hook, then bending it back into place afterwards. This time of year, the small impoundments provide good fishing; they warm up faster and do not muddy up as much after a rain as the big lakes. If anyone knows of any watershed lakes/large ponds in close in to Nashville available to the public let us know - there are not too many that I'm aware of but I have a few that have been coughing up bluegill and crappie all winter long, and will be improving as water temps and sun elevation get higher.
