Big down side for the braided lines is that they do last so long in the river system. When you break off it creates a permanent snag for all that follow you. Please do not use it in the river for drift fishing when snagging up is a big problem.
Big pluses for backtrolling and jig fishing. Would work great for back bouncing as long as your dropper wasn't made out of the stuff!!
