When it comes time to choose between monofilament or braided lines, the better is somewhat misleading. This is the commonest and most flexible, and it consists of one piece made of plastic that has been stretched and spooled. Because they are simple and inexpensive, these lines offer less memory and more stretch. They're a great choice for beginners anglers. The number of strands that are braided together (or "braided") can vary from 4 to 16. The line will last longer, have less memory, and be more flexible. This is great for smaller games, but not so much for large game fishing. Because they are both lighter and thinner than mono, braided lines have a higher durability than mono and can be used for deepwater fishing. Braided lines also feel more natural, but they are opaque, making it much easier for fishers to see the lines.
