That Cajun red line is something else again. I bought a spool of it to use on convench gear for leaders - 40 lb. test. It is the only line that I have ever used that is so stiff it picks up memory layin on the ground. Also is a bear to get a smooth clean knot. I started the season already by slicing my thumb on the damn tag end of my knot. I left just a bit too much.

low & slow 37

Underwater, red rays filter out the quickest and fade out entirely at a depth of 14 feet. Orange and purple rays disappear below 45 feet. Yellow is visible to 90 feet, green to 110 feet, and blue to 180 feet. Colors below their visibility range show as grey or black.

Thanks, limnology.

If red line supposedly works so well for this reason, why not just use greyish black line?

The worst day fishing is better than the best day working. ...Wait a minute, my work IS fishing. Sweet.
