What brand and size braid would you recommend?
Should I stay with Mono?
Should I go with floro?
Would love to hear opinions and why. Thanks in advance.
I have used #30 Powerpro green. It can slip. If you use the OR16 clips they hold pretty good. If I am using a TT40 I wrap at the clip. But all and all I have gotten used to them. I see OffShore also as the OR30BWW which is even heavyer in tension.

The main reasons I like braid is due to the facts branhamautomotive mentioned. Thin and follows the dive curve well. The other reason I like it is because it is thin in relationship to strength and it lasts and lasts. I like mono because it grips and has a little give to it. , But sunlight, abrasion, time and line thickness/strength relationships are all things that keep me using braid.
