Default Does anyone use Berkley Vanish flouro?

Vanish is absolute garbage compared to other fluorocarbons on the
market. I have used it for everything from bluegill to King Salmon. In
the low ranges , such as 2 or 4lb test fishing for panfish it holds up
just fine (for me), but try and drop shot with 6 or 8lb Vanish and I get
nervous even setting the hook with it. I won't even go into flipping
with the heavier options (17, 20,etc.) (might as well use a braid anyway
, which I do).

I would spend a little more and try Seaguar Invisix, or P-Line
Fluorocarbon, or even Seaguar CarbonPro. I have heard good things about
Gamma's Fluoro, and Yozuri Hybrid. I believe some guys here use P-Line
fluoroclear, which is just a fluorocarbon coated copolymer.

Hope this helps.
