I use pline flouroclear for almost all applications . For cranks it is great because of the low stretch.Per bullet04 statement you will break fish off if you use to stiff of a cranking rod becuase of the lack of stretch. I use 10 lb floroclear on a lamiglass cranking rod and have not broke a fish off.I also us 15 lb for spinnerbaits and other all purpose applications and have nothing but possitive things to say.
