Viscious Pan Fish His Vis. is all I use and have been very pleased with the line so far.
I like the braid but it wears out the eyes on the rods and it is hard to break off when I am on a pile and fish is on it.
some tend to faid in the sun and breaks down.
stop your wishin just go fishin

are yall running leaders for the braid?
Yes and no. I use Seagar InvisX fluorocarbon in clear water. Just straight braid in muddy water.

The only time I use a leader on braid is if the water really gets clear and I suspect the fish may be line shy. Most of the time (98%) no mono leader.

Go to Berkley Fireline in either Crystal or Lime Green. It is a fused line with no stretch. It's the only thing I use anymore. I found Fireline Crystal to be the worst braid I have ever used. It had a bad habit of digging into itself on the spool when reeled in under load. I Use Spiderwire Stealth braid 10lb (4 lb mono dia)on my crappie rods. Hehehe I feel the exact opposite as you. I hate Spiderwire Braid with a passion. It breaks more than any other braid I've fished. I feel like I'm trying to thread a wet noodle through my hook eyes..... lol I love Fireline to death hahaha. Just goes to show ya how different people's fishing styles can be. I'm sure you tear em up with Spiderwire but it's not my cup of tea.

Wally Marshall hi-vis is strong, but I have bad memory problems with it(if left on too long).I will have to try the reel magic trick because I have a bunch of line left.If I stay diligent, and replace line regularly it performs well for the money.

Stren XL 8 or 10# test works great for me most of the time. Me too, the best feel of any to me.
