Bobbers and float fishing and line, well sort of.
So I've been looking for some mono, fairly heavy, say forty to sixty pound test that floats. I know it's a big deal for bobber fishing, and it makes it easier to mend on the drift. I guess, I'm not so much looking for the poundage but more of the diameter of the line, like .024 to .030-ish. So I guess, what are you guys using and why do you like it? I've always been more of a braid guy but I'll be needing mono in this instance, visibility is a big plus too.
Build a man a fire and he's warm for the night. Light a man on fire and he's warm the rest of his life!

Once you choose your mono, you can improve the float properties by applying fly fishing line dressing to the top 30 feet or so.
