As per the title

What is the preffered type of braid and any recommendations for fishing distance on a weedy snaggy water?

I am thinking a floating braid?

I will be having a heavy mono/fluro leader too, rods up high on 10oz leads with heavy swingers

This is new to me so appreciate the advise

The powerpro looks like the same stuff on temu, have you ever used that? I think it's called extreme situation

Also any recomendatuon on a good tough fluro leader

I've never seen another braid that looks like powerpro & as far as I know it's unique to them.

I've seen a few different cheaper braids over the years as plenty of my friends like to get their stuff direct & it has all been different to the weave.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
