I do like the green Stren for spinning reels.

I keep going back to the clear blue fluorescent. I’ll try other lines from time to time, but it seems like I always end up with stren loaded back up slinger

Nice supple line, a bit too stretchy for my bass fishing preferences.

Its a good line to use on crankbaits because it gives some and will not snap into like a fluorocarbon line will. Back 20+ years ago all I used was Stren, I might use some now but just for the purpose of leaders.
Then again I am not a fan of fluorocarbon, I have just lost way too many fish using it and the memory is terrible. Last year I tried co-polymer and wasn't all that impressed. Overall I am happier and feel more confident using straight monofilament line.

I still use a lot of Stren in the clear blue fluorescent. Monofilament has its applications that are just better than the others.

I don't use it often but I do have a bulk spool of clear blue stren 14lb that I swear is just as strong as any other 17-20 lb test I've bought.

I've been using it (10#) for jerk baits. Most of my jerk bait fishing is done in fairly shallow water. Helps me see the strike better.

Texas waters are more green than blue. That's my justification, and I'm sticking to it. Even if I look like the idiot I am! roflmao

Stren is the only line I use, but I prefer the clear Fluorocarbon (Fluorocast).
