Spiderwire

Anyone fish the spiderwire for bottom fishing? I am looking to change my boat rods to this, I have been told there is much more feeling to this line. Can this line be trolled as well?

Yes, I have done it. It works better with a shock leader. Sometimes it can pop off if you use a braided line directly to a terminal tackle. Spiderwire is good for anything.

I use it. I switched to Fireline on most of my rods, but my boat road (mostly a bottom fishing rod) still has Spiderwire on it, and it'll stay that way. I use 18" black steel leaders with it. Great stuff.
