Sorry, I'm trying, I really am. I get that I can become tedious.......I'm a stickler for truth. If folk want to think the pros lack skill and can only do one thing well I guess I should just let them think what they want? 

The Bass Pros and Walleye pros were brought into the context of the discussion only to further the concept of using fluorocarbon. As per what I have already stated I know the Bass Pros use it.......

But what about walleye pros? Professional fisherman who fish waters very much like what we would find in canoe country like Quetico......Do they fish straight braid or do they add in a piece of fluorocarbon? I would be interested to know the answer to that. Could that answer be the difference between another 18" walleye or a 32" walleye? I dunno, I don't fish for a living.

I, for one, have a great deal of respect for tournament fishermen. It's hard putting big fish in the boat on a consistent basis. Lots harder than most folk think and when they speak I tend to listen.
