you can tie strait to the lure. braid is use to cut cost in the long run, kelp cutter, and more line in smaller reels to catch big fish...probably missing a few more reasons. others will add. top shot is needed when the fish is picky. some believe that it produces more bites. i don't use fluro all the time. only on picky bites.
i use mono and flurocarbon top shot. i use about 5-10' of topshot. image how long a 1000ft of 6lbs test will last.
