Line LB Test for LE Walleye

[B can man]

Trolling or casting? Will make a big difference on the recommendations you get.

For drifting and casting, which is most of my walleye fishing, I have always used Spiderwire 12lb braid. Very sensitive, very easy to feel the bottom and strikes and is very strong.

Tight Lines!

Trolling #17lb mono

For casting, 20lb Power Pro braid. Same diameter as 8lb mono with no line memory or stretch. Very sensitive. A good reel with a smooth drag is key here, due to the lack of line stretch when fighting fish.

For trolling, 30lb Power Pro braid with 20lb Ande mono leaders off of jets or dipseys.

30 lb. Spiderwire braid for me....8 lb diameter used for both casting and trolling (with 17 lb. mono leaders).
i have one reel that i spooled up in 2000, and still casts like new!......jmo....good luck
