Color braid
I know there is colored braid on the market but I want to color just a short section at 25, 50, & 75'.
Tried a couple things already that didn't work very well Has anyone tried dye,,, that's my next move I have this vision of loosing 3 fish in a row from line failure,, 25' at a time LOL |
Bunch of tight half hitches with floss about an inch long

Hmmm, I'll give that a go, may not work on the rods with micro guides (don't ask) 😀

ive got some diawa stuff I use jigging offshore for tuna - no complaints except for the price
|
Try a Permanent Marker (a sharpie)-They come in many colors
|
Sharpie is the best bet.
Otherwise get some JB hollow core and splice in the colors at desired intervals. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |
I use the same stuff as Niko.
I think it's called boat braid. Awesome stuff. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |
Don't like Sharpies.
Use permanent Markers on the 1st few feet of line. The yellow and black make a camo effect. |
what about one of those line counters that clip on the fishing rod ? I have never used 1 but was thinking of trying 1 out .

Diawa boat braid, slick stuff,small spool 300 m like $38 on eBay from jigging world unless local places have it. Top shot a few reels with cpl hundred feet uni to uni to fish the race. Mark fish 60 ft , drop 2 colors, done.
