Snapper season is rapidly comming here on the Goldcoast. This year I want to try something other than mono. I havn't used braid or fireline etc before, so I am unsure if it will be suitable. The type of fishing I will be doing is floatlining, the bailarm of the reel will be left open so line can flick off the spool at its own leasure, when I get a hit, I simply flick the bail arm over & the fish hooks itself.
Will any of the NON mono lines be suitable for this?
Also how should I set the drag, due to it having zero stretch. I usually use the 1/3 method, is this still the case with braid???
