Has anyone seen, used, or knotted with this line?

i have hi vis 80lb never used it bro inlaw got it for me.

It won best line in a recent national tackle show thingy. I have heard that it's coating doesn't ware out very easily and it stays round doesn't bury itself yadda yadda. I'm going for it this year... 1 rod power pro 1 rod Super Braid. We'll see

I have wanted to try it out but haven't found the stuff anywhere.

anyone want to but mine brand new never used 300yds of 80lb hi vis( bright yellow) ?? plug trade? i tryed to trade it in but no bait& tackle shops carry it. the only use i might have with it is cod fishing and i'm done with that.

I was given a 300yd spool of 50#, but its bright yellow.

I guess with a long shock leader it wont matter much?

I think I am going to go with Cortland Spectron on my conventional reels next season as from what everyone says its much less prone to wind knots and kinking up. Which is my only complaint with PP! Small kinks in PP weaken it bigtime!! Snapped off a 2.5 oz chumster needle because of that this past season!
Almost wanted to cry!!

Thanks.
I like the hi-vis line. All my reels have bright stuff. Sufix makes some real bright lines. I fish a long shocker, about 15 feet or so and tie an albright knot to my running line. The albright is great once your fingers have learned to seat it right. I use it with braid as well, though, here, many wraps are needed for a confident finish. The uni to uni is great too, but I don't think it trims up as nice.
I still fish mono, even when jigging the current, though two of my reels have braid. I side with Dave Pickering: don't toss your mono spools yet.
The reason I like the Hi-Vis lines, esp. when working jigs in a heavy current, is that you can follow the sweep of the jig by the angle of the line. Sometimes at night I lose contact with the jig; I think it is still off to my right say, when really it has swept pass my center and is on my left side. Braid helps here, but still I love following the line, sweeping in the tide. It is one reason I'm thinking of the stren.

ML, you better give up cod!! you are a trash fisherman any way!!:laughs:

mj what the hell is that supposed to mean??? i fish for the same thing u do.....:laughs:

Yea but you only get trash fish!! you can't catach a good fish if you wanted to!! Just keep using that yellow line!!:laughs:

wait till the plug thing i will put the yellow line to good use on u :laughs: :laughs:

O I wish I could say what I want!!:laughs:

Thats why I didn't say it!! Come back when you grow up :happy:

yeah on the other side of things you watching the pats game??

I don't watch sports! Any of them! I hate sports

I was down turning a new rod, I hope to have it ready for epoxy tomorrow and i will do on Mon. The guy wants it for Xmas and this will be just about right. I hate to give it out without first letting hang around for 3 or 4 days so the epoxy gets hard. But he no's the deal so should be fine
