RE: vanish??
i am a big fan of berkley line, Big game mainly, itis one of the toughest lines i have ever used, but sadly[&o]i tried vanish in 12-14 pound test, i was sorely disapointed. i wouldn't use it on a weed-eater[:@]
another factor to consider on line is how its stored, very brittle line useally indicates poor storage practices Ie; heat/light[:@][&o]
