Does anyone feel like they might miss some fish using braid because braid does not stretch? I am using St Croix medium lite fast action rod. Seems like I did better using 12# Mason mono. In particular referring to top water and crank baits. Sometimes with both of those baits I land a fish and it is barely hooked. Just wondering if when I set the hook, I'm jerking the hooks away from the fish.
You can use a mono or fluorocarbon leader that will give you enough stretch to set the hook. Good luck
