I just spooled up a couple of my reels with Stren Hi-Vis braid in 4/14. Excellent casting and 0 memory. Have not used it long enough to form a full opinion, but looks good so far.

Mr. Crappie Hi-Vis hands down after this weekend. I've always been a green line user because of perceived line shyness. That Hi-Vis stuff is easy to see and didn't seem to bother the fish.

Lord.....Please forgive me for what I am about to do to your crappie......AMEN

I like Trilene XL flo clear blue and clear. the blue is almost as visible and Mr Crappie Hi-vis in certain light situations. As far as price/value..... Mr Crappie is hard to beat and very castable.

I figured several of the wardens got the e-mail or folks who posted about it. Nice to know he checks in and reads the board.....

Stren original Gold is the best by far.

I've been using Wally Marshall's HI-VIS 4# for casting over grass, and his 6# for fishing brush. Sound like I might want to switch to W. Marshall 6# Line for all around use.
I thought the 4# would be better to shoot docks with, to get under the dock futher.

Tom The 6# will shoot waaay under the docks with no problem...and I am shooting with fairly narrow spools. If you find a micro-spinning reel with a wide spool, then you could shoot even further. With the 6# line, I can shoot completely under virtually every dock.

2 of my rigs are the Walmart Shakespeare Micro Spins. They are only $19.99 for the rod/reel combo. 1 of my rigs is the Ugly Stick rod/reel combo. Got it at Academy for $29.99. I don't want to invest a lot of money in these rigs, because my clients are using them sometimes. If it breaks...I'm not out a lot of money. Plus, we have pulled hundreds of crappie out of Cedar Creek with them this year...so they work great
