My brother -In -Law gave me a gift cert to Bass Pro and I ordered a 9' H-M Ugly Stick Striper Salmon pole. Going to load it up with some 20# and hit the big creek. What are your thoughts on braid vs. mono?

Definitely true, fished Montauk thru November and it seamed like the fish were never going to leave heading south. From live eels at night for jumbo cows to 50 pounds or throwing diamond or epoxy jigs thru the fall on all size class fish it was a very productive year ! So many other charter captains out there also said best fishing in 20 years.
