I’ve decided to get the Ambassadeur C3, and I’m not sure what brand or test of line would do best. I’ll be fishing for Carp & Channel Cats mostly, but I will occasionally use it Bass fishing with large Jigs & Spinnerbaits. I’ve also decided I want a 7′ medium/heavy action rod to use with the reel. I want a line that is visible, because when fishing for Carp & Channel Cats (and Bass with Jigs or Soft Plastics), a lot of the strikes is when your line gets slack, and goes to the side or straight out. I really like clear/blue fluorescent line. I’d prefer that it not be a Braid.
I do know the clear/blue fluorescent line is highly visible, when I Carolina rig my line, I’m going to use 17-pound fluorocarbon or 12-pound Big Game low-vis green as the leader instead of the blue florescent line.
12lb clear sufix siege. but big game may work okay too.

Well i know you already dont like a braid line, but that is what you really want to use for the simple reason when fishing jigs and soft plastics in heavy cover like grass, or stumps mono line tends to stretch and wont allow a good hook set. As of a Braided line like Berkley fire line that i use alot when i fish jigs and spinner baits lets you feel the bite better due to the line has no stetch to it, so when you do set the hook the power of the hook set goes straight to the hook therefore increases your precentage of hook sets in heavy cover.
Also remember a fluorescent line is highly visible for you too see and the fish too. My advice to you is if you do not like braid try Berkley big game 20 lbs test.

50lb Fireline Crystal with 30lb flourocarbon leader, about 2ft worth should do.
