Default RE: Fireline Review

I use it a lot. I use mostly the high vis green as I have a hard time seeing the smoke color. I can hardly see to tie it. Its super stong and though it will show signs of what looks like fraying, it retains its strength. I used to use the 10 lb a lot but have gone to the 14 for crank baits and spoons. I use the 6 lb. for jigging Walleyes. I will go to the eight if I am jigging in timber like at Devils lake. I use the 30 lb for channel cats on the Red River because of the snags. I then tie on a 20 lb test Mono leader in case I have to break off in a snag. The lighter stuff will get wind loops on spinning reels. You goota keep an eye out for that. Its about my favorite super line. I am trying the Stren Super Braid as well this year. Iw worked well at Devils lake a few days ago. I used the 14-4 version. It casted well with the light number five shad raps and stood up to the Northerns well.
