Are you sure you get as many bites as you would if you were using a less visable string? I, for one, think you aren't ;-) Quite simple. I've fished with Gil, clients and other people using either monofilament lines or leaders of flourocarbon or mono, while I've fished the exact same water using PowerPro. My catch ratio is the same or better using the straight superline as those using less visible products. THAT's what I base my opinion on. -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |

I wouldn't know either way, but has anyone used the Yozuri hybrid in smoke
color. I spooled up with it yesterday gonna try it out today, lake is clear, I've used the green but not the smoke, I imagine it's less visible but until I get a talking fish I don't know "Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers" wrote in message ...

But I have used it in the past as an experiment and found (for a mono type line) it to be tough, relatively low stretch and fairly decent line. It's probably what I would buy if I bought non-superlines. -- Steve @ OutdoorFrontiers http://www.outdoorfrontiers.com G & S Guide Service and Custom Rods http://www.herefishyfishy.com |

It's a nice mix between Floro and nylon

I've got some input on this one. Fireline, IMO, does have a sliding ratio
as the line becomes white. Less boated fish. I have tried using two fireline rigged rods. When I do the end for end trade, take the line off and turn it around and respool again. Using one that is white (old) and one that is black (new) with the same colored tube, every other cast to the same spot and found the black line does produce a lot more fish and bites. I always blacken the last twenty feet of fireline. PPro too. Nothing scientific but there is a significant difference. In my lake you just can't use mono if you are in the weeds or near the bottom. My lake has about a twenty foot visibility depth. Unlessen you're not out there to get fish in the boat that is ;-) -- Stony "alwayfishking" wrote in message ...
