    night time jig & tube fishing line???

    Is there another line other than monofilament that would be extremely sensitive & still be highly visible at night in the black light?? Thanks

    Berkley Fireline in flame green. There is also some good copolymer lines that are fluorescent. Not as sensitive as braid but I think more sensitive then mono...Gama is the brand I was using.

    Re: night time jig & tube fishing line???

    i use p-line fluorocarbon but i don't use a black light i go by fill. i just started doing this all last year and i seem to have landed more and better fish then when useing a black light. if you think about it all the boats who night fish use some type of light. weather it be black, red, green, or white it gives some type of light pinatration in the water. pluse i think that if you use some type of line that you can see under the lights that it glows all the way down into the water to. and like people say that fish will become adapted to the lights and after being cought so many times when a light is around they will be more relucktent to bite. now if you can sneak up on a spot with no light and no visible line and a more realistic looking bait they will be more likely to bite.

    i don't know if all of that is true but it sounds good. all i know is that i have cought more and better fish then when i used to use a black light. and this is what i came up with in my head why it works better so if that is what i think and it works then like they all say it is what you have confidence in. just my 2 cents

    thanks

    I use P-line CX premium. It is black light visible and is Fluro coated. It has low memory compared to CXX. Great line

    Ive been a fan of the p-line fluoroclear for awhile, but I think I'll try the Basspro Excel. I respool with new line several times a season, so it would be nice to save a few bucks if the line meets what Im looking for.

    Re: night time jig & tube fishing line???

    I have tried the Bassproshops excel line & I in know way like it. I've broke it & lost fish using it on my heavy action flipping sticks& it was twenty pound test. Maybe i got ahold of some that was old, but lost 2 tournaments in a row because of it. Simply not enough abrasion resistance for me. Is it better than it was say 5 years ago???
