Default Anyone use braid in fresh water??

I mostly bass fish (LM) and have always used mono. I mostly use rubber worms. I was thinking of trying power pro this year, but never really see/hear of people using it for fresh water. Any input?

when im bass fishing, i always have a rod set up with braid its a must when your fishing around weeds to cut them, i use 50 lb because it cuts the best.

its pretty common for people to use braid, i always hear of bassmasters using it.

It's good for bass fishing in none finesse situations..when tossing plastics or cranks/spinner baits it's fine...I would avoid it in super clear situations...

I use braid when I use jigs or jerkbaits. I use mono with bait or in moving water.
