Just curious about the braided line? . What is the purpose of the braid with perchin.? Do you run a leader with mono or flouro or braid all the way to the rig? I get jiggy with a 7 foot st Croix and 6lb test.? Same setup I use when I go perchin.

I use a small swivel and then a 3 foot flouro skipper 9 rig. The flouro does a good job with abrasion and not twisting. You definitely have to back off on the braid hook set though or you will just bring up lips.

Braid is more sensitive and no stretch.

I use braided for perchin. I like the feel of no stretch sensitivity for the light biters. I use a mono leeder in case of a snag when using a spreader. Straight up braided when using a Skipper9 rig.

Braid, As others have said, if a perch so much as farts your way you will feel it.
