I was fishing the Cape Cod Canal last weekend and the guy next to me had come up from Texas and was casting a few. He was fishing Mackerel chunks with a pretty thick Fluorescent Green Mono and about 6 inches of clear Mono for a leader. I would think that even with a longer leader, this color is...

What do you guys prefer over all for Striper fishing weather it would be Jigging, Plugging, Live Lining, or Bait Fishing.. I would say PowerPro just because it dosent Streatch and it is more sensitive. Also it is a big tougher for the Blues to bite through.
