This man has quickly become one of my favorites

Love Debo's approach, flat tells you he doesn't know everything, but will share everything he knows.

I spooled it with 8 LB test mono for lighter lures, gave it some practice casts and found that it did cast well kzfaq.infoUgkxSlytCJqozTF7EbdP4LWP-HUXf9WRDJ0e , except that the anti-backlash setting had to be turned up almost all of the way to keep the "overcasts' ' down. I disassembled it, and found that if I potted some "shim washers" behind that anti-backlash magnet assembly, it got the magnets closer to the spool without rubbing, and I could get better control with about a 6 to 7 out out 10-Max setting. I also noticed that the handle shaft had some internal end play, maybe only 2 or 3 thousands of an inch, but it's still noticeable. If the anti-backlash and shaft tolerances were "tightened up" this would be a fantastic value. I've only used it for 4 days of fishing in a month's time, but I plan on keeping it.

Suffix 832 in Moss Green. 30 pound braid on both Spinning and Baitcaster reel's. Smooth casting, Tough, Color stays for a long time. Your Largemouth PB wont get away. Bang for your Buck! Shawn.

I use a 20 lb braid which is the same size as 8 lb mono and put an 8 or 10 lb leader on my spinning combos . I use 15 lb on all my baitcasters except my frogin rod. I put 50 lb braid on it. I recommend KVD Line and Lure spray for mono and flouro it really helps out a lot especially if you put it on the night before you go fishing. 👍👊

I saw someone checking the difference in stretch between mono and fluorocarbon, and surprisingly there were only about 2 inches difference.

Well I WAS watching Diners, Drive-ins and Dives but then I got a Debo notification so here I am....

My father gave me 30-50 lb braid in my first bait caster and it was genius. Strong enough to get most lures unstuck and casts great.

Your mention of the line, Rod, lure series sounds like a great idea. While fishing can be as simple as a cane pole, line, hook and bobber, it can also quite specific and detailed. I’m a lifelong learner and you’ve been quite helpful to both me and my son. We’d appreciate that series of videos. 👍🏻😁 Thanks, Mr. Debo!

Is it just me or is Debos thumbnail pictures really satisfying

How does he know everything I need every time I’m thinking it

Getting ready for pre-spawn. Debo is helping me

All Power Pro does is knot up on the reel. Loses color really fast. Casts like crap! Always binds up on the spool. Constantly fixing back lashes with Power Pro braid. Suffix 832 fixed all these issues. Give it a try. Comes in 300 yard spools too. Shawn.

I just watched your older best line video last night, good timing 🍻👍🏻

Debo is dropping knowledge Bombs 💥!!! Love it brother, great video as always!

Im glad you made this video because I am going to start learning line soon after i master baits for all four seasons

Really needed this. Didn’t know there were any differences. Thanks man!

Thanks for the info .. I been out of the fishing game for close to 35 years and just now getting back to it..and I have no idea what I'm doing if its not a worm and bobber...but your videos are helping me to get it figured out. Keep up the good work.

Good evening Mr. Debo's Fishing, I am TRUELY IMPRESSED by your Knowledge of the different types of Fishing lines and their applications my Friend! I have been hesiatant of using braided lines in the past due to there abillity to cut into the guides of the rods I'd be using. Thank you for debunking this issue and giving me a senseof reassurance when joining to a fluorcarbon or mono leader. 🙂I Enjoy ALL of your video's my Fishing Friend! LOL! Keep a Tight Line and May God Bless you and Your Familiy! Sincerely, Mr. Carl J. Gwizdala aka "Desperado." LOL!

Another fire video brother hard to find too many other creators that are so easy to watch

Agree with braid if u get a backlash gota find the loop learned that from one of your old videos

Mono and braid for me , but I’ll have to give fluoro another chance. Great informative vid

Perfect timing DEBO! just got my birthday present (Curado K and st croix Mojo bass rod) on the fence between fluoride and braid

I recently got a 7ft medium moderate Cranking rod And I paired it with an Abu Garcia Revo X. Right now I have some 12lb mono on it It's my first cranking setup So I have high hopes to try it This spring. If you have any advice I'm open to hear it You're my favorite Fishing channel And your advice has helped me catch many fish Look forward to seeing more videos!

Talking about line today. Good subject. As you know,.... I wasn't a braided line fan at all. Now, that's changed. The first observation...... your knot!!!! Got to have a good knot. I came up with a variation of the FG knot. But what really does matter more is the fact that the knot you use for your leader needs to flow through the eyelets of the guides on the rod not knock or stick during a cast. That can cause you to lose insulators from your guides. It'll also cost you a big fish. So knots are important. Mono vs Fluorocarbon....... really have to agree with you on it. Mono for topwater is a must. Fluorocarbon has virtually no stretch at all. Hooksets will give on mono but not with Fluorocarbon. Fluorocarbon does tend to have knot issues also so you have to come up with a good knot for sure. Good tutorial 👊👊. Not a beginner by no means but I'm always learning something in this sport nearly everytime I go. Thank you Debo

Hey DEBO I'd love to see that series come back, it would definitely help me a ton.

Downside to braid that clinchknot or improved clinchknot is a no go!

Video on your favorite knots would be cool to watch.

Braid all the way! Powerpro or 832. I’ll use a copolymer leader if I’m fishing gin clear water or thick mono leader for top water

Thanks man. I was wondering about what line to use for my first baitcaster and you got me sold on fluorocarbon

Thanks for lining things up for us. Lol. Setting us straight and hooking up some knowledge. Good video Debo.

I like the knowledge videos like this. I'd like more of those rod-reel-line videos too.

I love the new layout. Looks like you're on a fishing throne.

Good vid Debo, lots of info. Thanks

Class is in session and Professor Debo schooling us. As a novice, I appreciate the simplicity and thorough explanation of your content! Keep doing what you’re doing!

One of THE biggest tackle improvements and changes I’ve ever made was going braid to fluorocarbon leader on spinning gear and bottom contact baitcaster setups. Straight fluorocarbon on baitcasters for moving baits. The braid is very easy to cast from spinning gear and it lasts forever. Honestly the only use for monofilament I see is topwater, and only as a leader. Full spool of monofilament you are asking for trouble.

Hey Debo, could you do a tour of all your different set-ups and what you use it for. Love the videbo!

I always get excited for a new viDEBO

That's a good dog. And thanks for this video. I was going to buy some new line in the next few weeks and wasnt sure what I should get. This cleared it all up for me. Thanks Debo.

Perfect timing man. My new reel came in today

I can't stop watching DEBO.. One of the best 👌 on utube

It's funny that u uploaded this vid because I just got my first casting combo the other day. Thx for the tips.

I use 12Ib fluorocarbon, Pline, floro clear is awsome!!!

Very difficult topic but Debo nailed it. This is like an ultimate guide to fishing line. I agree 99% with Debo. But I use braid to leader for everything.

What about knots for all those lines your talking about? Shawn.

I should have watched this before I put line on my new baitcaster this morning. Just strung up fluoro and then tied a walking bait on it, woops..gonna change it out for a square bill before fishing tm morning. Fantastic video as always Mr. Debo!

The river by my house here in Michigan has a lot of sandstone chunks as well as laydowns and brush piles. Great small mouth though

As a new guy to using a bait caster, I was told or advised to use braid 20-60 lbs. my pole is 7’9” heavy fast. My reel is a 6.4 abu Garcia low pro. I managed to back lash just loading up the reel itself.

Good video. Excellent point. Actual research has shown that fluoro is less abrasion resistant than mono. I have found that fluoro is especially difficult to manage in cold water. And, unlike mono, the stretch you get in fluoro actually permanently damages the line (weakening it). It is not as elastic - the taffy effect. Just a few thoughts and observations. Appreciate your channel.

I’m with you on most of those points Debo. I usually use mono now only for trolling, floro for leaders, and switching everything to braid, baitcasters or spinners

Line is something in fishing that there are a few “rules” to like braid for frogging or punching, or mono for top water and cranks. Other than that it is to each his own. Personally, I don’t have any frogging water near me and I am currently boatless, I use only mono. 4-8 lb on spinning, and 12 lb on all my casting rods. I have tried straight florocarbon and didn’t like it. I might try the braid to floro leader on spinning rods and see if it helps detect more bites on finesse baits. Thanks for the tips Debo.

I have to save this vid so I can refer back to it in the spring. I am going to buy one more bait caster and one more spinning combo. This will help me when I decide to put line on them. Top notch information. 😉

Hey Debo: great insights; you are obviously enthusiastic and a good teacher. One booboo you made was at 12:50 when you compared line diameters. Doesn't matter; we get the point: for any given strength, braid has much smaller diameter than other lines of same strength.

I use braid on everything and I hate when it digs in to itself. I've become pretty good at casting so that doesn't happen as often but it still happens

Great video man!!! Thanks for the shout out!!! 👊

I have one reel with straight flouro for cranking and braid to a leader for everything else. I have done braid to a short mono leader for walking baits. I may start running more flouro after this though

I’m def a braid guy, love the casting and sensitivity... but fluorocarbon does work...

Great job of explaining the differences. You saved a lot of guys a lot of money. Experimenting is a great learning tool but line is expensive. Thanks 👍

Debo you are my info man to a fishing question. You are very knowledgeable.

Great video as always. I have started using Zebcos Cajun Red mono. Its pretty cheap and I just love it.. I started using baitcasters with braid before mono. My advice for that is things called placards. They are basically plastic toothpicks. They have them in packs of hundreds at dollar stores. It makes picking out backlash much easier. When you mention braid digging in...absolutely do not try to force a backlash stop with ant force! It will definitely bury in and become almost impossible to fix. I've started using mono on one now and its basically learn the baitcaster all over again. Just don't be afraid folks. Backlash and snags are a big part of our hobby. If course the random person that sees you snag that tree will cut a joke but its nothing to be embarrassed about lol

i used 20lb braid to a 12lb trilene xl clear leader so much last year. it was my go to unless thw water was super clear.

Yooo I been watching forever and just subscribed (didn’t know I wasn’t ) Debo your one if not my fav fishing KZfaqr

After having such a hard time with flouro I switched to 30lb braid. No backlashes and no memory at all

Great breakdown! You lucked out with Mr. Stubbs super chill dog!

That is the best dog EVER! Damn you got lucky with him. Great video man!👊

For tying knots, Trilene XL is my favorite.

Thanks for the tips. I would like to see more videos like this.

Perfect information as I'm thinking about refreshing line for spring

The answer is it’s technique specific and it’s big reason why pros have 10-20 rods set up on the boat. Personally I’m braid to leader. At most I bring 4 rods and I stay on a budget.

These videos are why I think you are the best fishing channel out there. Keep up the great content as always!

Berkley vanish is an awesome budget fluoro for u new guys! It’s slightly more expensive than red label but it casts better and doesn’t feel like heavy gauge wire... red label is insanely wiry in the stronger lines like 17-20+ Ibs

I enjoyed this video! Gave it the thumbs up! 👍🏻

Awesome info Debo, there are so many different knots you can use. Would be cool to see different knots for different applications. Like tying on leaders etc. 👊

I’m braid line all the way , but my area is mostly stain water so I can get away with that . Plus I have seen where the line suddenly stop in mid flight and yes I have snap off some lures , especially smaller pound braid . (That’s where a mono or flora leader comes in handy to be the shock absorber ) Maybe next topic is : for beginner , should you get a reel first and try to pair that up with a rod , OR pick up a rod first and try to find a reel to pair that up with .

Very helpful, need to start the video over and take notes!!

Debo I don’t care what anyone saying . I use strait up 30lb braid no matter what I’m using , never ever seen any difference no matter if I’m using top water ,Texas ,Carolina , swim bates, finess stuff , you name it ...it makes no friggin difference. There’s so much stuff on the bottom of the lake fish will not be able to tell the difference between a slim weed and your braid so it’s like companies are selling you snake oil ....I’ve landed smallmouth bass in absolute crystal clear water while watching them pick up the bait using straight braid Ironically it was crystal lake Illinois

Debo’s is the guy you meet on the water who you end up talking to for an hour

The one thing about fishing a Buzzbait on floro is that you can’t fish the Buzzbait as slow as you can with braid. That’s they only reason I throw it on braid.

Hi DEBO, Great job !!! I really needed this right now. Great Help. You are the best.

Awesome video man, as always. Really important stuff to know when you want to get better. Thanks Debo the Sensei

What’s up deboooo I immediately click when I get a notification for one of your vids😁

I love your channel. Literally the most informative fishing channel on KZfaq. I wish I lived close to Iowa I'd absolutely love to pick your brain and fish with you. Keep up the great content. Thanks Debo!

Couldn't have said it better myself very good

Great video Debo, thanks for the info 👍👍👍. Nigel ( Chicago )

Great j breaking down the differences. What and when. Doing the braid to fluro this year.

I'm still fairly new to your channel....and to fishing in general. I'd love to see you start up again with the 'hook, line, rod & reel' you mentioned for each type of fishing you do. I find your channel one of the very best out there for newbies such as myself. Thanx so much!

I took your advice earlier on using braid on spinning reels. Great advice. Thanks.

LUV UR VIDS!! OK, yea, I've posted a similar comment elsewhere but I love to teach & share WHAT WORKS from decades of doin it. My gear, forever, has been quality but basic Baitcasters (NEVER over 100 bux) (Abu's, Diawa's, Shimano's etc...) 5'6" med/heavy rods (Ugly sticks etc...) And ALWAYS mono! Actually, ALWAYS 14 lb. mono. Thousands of Bass. Countless bigguns over 5 lbs. And a 14.5 lb lunker caught using a "secret" worm technique. (And many FAT Catfish & a 5'7" Carp that I had to lay on the bank to drag in.) Mono has simply been the most versatile line for me. Texaa riggin to top water where I bend the bill of a black Jitterbug with pliers a certain way to get a better "chug" sound for night fishin. (Nothing more fun!!) Yea, times & tackle have changed over the years (you guys call a 7 or 8 foot stick a "fishin pole!") But don't discount what made Bill Dance & Roland Martin MILLIONAIRES back in the day!! Lastly... You're bank fishing with heavy brush & overhead tree branches. Or, you see fairly close "hidey places" in the water. What do you want? A 7 or 8 foot stick? Or a precise 5'6" maneuverable FISHIN pole?? 'Nuff said!! Tight lines guys!!

Super helpful!! Thank you for the great video!

Awesome video man love it! Love the Hook Line and Rod series and I’m now going to rewatch them!!!

Nice coverage and overview.

Yes a True “Renaissance Man” his advice has helped me immensely get back into Fishing after off for 2 Decades a lot easier and I’m truly grateful…

Very informative video. Surprised you don't have more subscribers.

Great video man! No matter a beginner or pro some awesome info!

Can u PLEASE try some Berkeley big game this summer!? I love the stuff

Really appreciate these kind of videos. Would appreciate more specifics (brand/size) for specific applications (ned, neko, Texas etc).

Thats a beautiful dog debo..great tips i agree with your decisions 100%

Perfect timing debo I just bought my 3rd baitcasting combo today. I spooled one of them 2 days ago with braid and haven't fished yet. But now I actually want to change out the braid to this new combo. Could I unspool it and reuse the line? Thank you.

Thanks buddy. I've been locked up the past year and ready to get out some more this year. I needed a refresher on lines to use. I'm mainly fishing open water from a kayak when not on the bank.

Funny Debo you’re a fluorocarbon purest like I’m a braid purest I just change the leader just have to laugh we all have our way keep up the GREAT JOB!!! Jim from Norfolk, Ne.
