    Re: What Line do you recommend?

    I think for price and all around use Trilene XL. I have landed several of 3-5 pound Smallies in the winter on 6lb test with a good drag.

    Re: What Line do you recommend?

    Has anyone tried the new P-Line Evolution? I've seen it a few places, but never heard what anyone thought about it. I was mainly wondering how it compares with P-Line Floroclear.

    Silver Thread AN 40 8# test for spinning. Little memory, lays on spool great small Diameter and can't hardly break it when you are hung down.

    Hey ArtCarney why did they take Ironsilk off the shelf? I have used it in the past and like it.

    I made the switch to stren and loved it but had a few problems with it this year and will switch to Ironsilk or P-line. I have also heard great stuff about tripplefish but have never used it.

    Re: What Line do you recommend?

    I've been thinking about switching to Vanish Transitions on my light rigs, too, and I've been wondering, do you need to change it as often as you do mono?

    BTW I've been getting Ironsilk at Fisherman's Factory Outlet http://www.ffo-tackle.com/
    I love that site. Kinda like the Big Lots of online tackle shops; they don't have everything, but what they do have is real cheap!

    Re: What Line do you recommend?

    Might as well throw in my 2 cents. I have to echo some of the other posts. I almost exclusively use Bass Pro's Excel---cheap,strong,low memory, but I change often. For Braid, I use Power Pro only!!!

    Talking Re: What Line do you recommend?

    I use the Berkley Vanish, this line is awesome. 14-20 I am a power fisherman and like to do alot of flippin into the thick nasty stuff. I very rarely break off and most of the time its my own fault for not re-tying after a few fish. The clear line is great for the clear lakes that I fish. I can use a heavier line and not worry if the fish can see it. Bonus is that the line sinks wich is great for flukes, it lets you get a little deeper without adding weight to the bait. Dont use this line in top water lures. The last 20 feet of your retreive will be under water. I even use Vanish in night fishing. I fish by feel and not watching the line. Come On Spring Time!!!!!
