Don't waste your money. Worst line I have ever spooled on a reel. Just FYI
I'm thinking about going all braid from now on.

I'm thinking about going all braid from now on. I have never tried it. I am a braid man. Sorry to hear you are dissatisfied with the product..please explain your problem so other forum members can understand your frustration.

I'm thinking about going all braid from now on. That's how I feel about Mr.Crappie's products.

This product is actually Bass Pro's version of the Mr. Crappie Hi-vis line that they use to carry. The line seemed like a good deal at only $7.99 for a big spool, however as soon as I started spooling it on my reel I noticed it had tons of memory.
The line has more memory than any other mono line I have used.
Just thought I'd give y'all a heads up in case you think about trying it.

This is all I use cause I found it on sale awhile back like 4.99 for the big spools. There is memory in the line just like any other mono line it stretches out once you catch a fish and works fine after that. I have had no issues with it since I have been using it.

I bought some CrappieMax camoflage last fall. I don't have any memory issues, but it's not really hi vis above the water which makes me wonder if it's as invisable below the water as it says. I'm still gonna use it though. 
Happy and Safe Fishing,

Maybe I just got a bad batch. I am very familiar with monofilament line and the fact that it all has some amount of memory, however the line that I purchased does not lose the memory after catching a few fish. It just stays the same the whole time I'm fishing, coiling and knotting up every ten fish or so. Glad others have not had the same experience, but I learned my lesson this time - don't buy the cheap line.... Just my  on the matter

i have always used trilene xl with good results have recently switched to braid and a mono leader braid last much longer and saves you a lot of money despite the higher cost
