I have loaded one of my centre pins with Fireline Crystal 8lb BS with the intention of float fishing with it for chub and barbel this season.
I am seeking advice on the set up. Some people suggest 12 to 15 feet of mono uni knotted to the braid so that everything below water is mono and this does not cast a shadow as braid does. Others seem to recommend a small swivel with a hooklink of 18 inches to 2 feet. Hence some braid will be below the surface.The swims I am considering fishing will be between 4 and 8 feet.
What do you braid user suggest?
