re: What kind of fishing line do you use?

Depends on the application. I use mostly mono but have been using braid more and more. I use 50# power pro on my jig, punch rig, and frog rods.
I recently made a bream fishing trip to Henderson. I usually use a light spinning rod n reel with 4 lb mono. Was fishing worm under slip cork. Had problems with the line coiling up and forming loops. Not too big of a deal, but it was annoying. I bought some 15# power pro (4 lbs diameter equivalent) and I'm never going back to mono on a spinning reel again. The cork even slid up and down a thousand times better on the braid. HUGE difference.
ETA: I realize OP is discussing inshore fishing. The same applies for my other spinning rods. Will probably change them all over to braid.

[hijack] Fish Henderson in the yak any lately? Drove over the bridge this weekend and noticed the water looked great. [/hijack]
