Thx kevine80, was referring to throwing weightless plastics. NickHasty, if you use this method and don't watch your line than you're missing bites.

Although I don't have trouble seeing my line I have some bulk spools of Stren fluorescent blue that I've been using on shallow diving crankbaits and as soon as it goes underwater its about as invisible as clear/green mono. Bright as day above water though.

Some of the best braid I have ever used is the Fins Windtamer, I think they market it as a saltwater line... It stays stiffer and the coating stays on 2x as long as power pro. Anyway, it comes in hot pink, and is stupid easy to see. Check it out. Also, I am in no way shape or form affiliated with Fins, this is just a guy that believes in their product.

I thought we were always trying to make our line invisible anyway. 1st monofilimant now fluorocarbon to catch the smart wary largemouth bass. Sounds like you are fishing with the right line already!

I strictly use Windtamer. Best braid there is, and made in USA
