Berkley Vanish

[mlvaj]

Just wondering how everyone thinks of this brand of flourocarbon line? I just bought a pack of 14lb vanish last night and rigged it up on my Shimano Citica 200E. Plan on using this for cranking/spinnerbaiting and maybe some texas-rigging. At only $11, I'm hoping it's worth the money for 250 yards.

all that stuff is really good for is leaders.. i tried some on my shamano and it would backlash like it had something to prove no matter how tight the friction thing was it would still back lash when i quit reeling.. makes a great leader tho!

I have used it for years and love it! Dont be afraid to use some line treatment, helps all lines.

flouro is junk with out kvd line conditioner

I have 12# on my baitcaster and backlashes are rare. I think the lines casts pretty well too. No complaints here.

i've used it in 12 to 17 pound test with no line conditioner and it works fine. i get more backlashes with my reels with braid than the ones with vanish. i actually think it gives less backlashes than the 100% flouro that berkley has to. just my 2 cents.

I too only use it for leaders. I use 12 lb and 20 lb tied to heavier Power pro. I really do like the stuff for that purpose but I've never spooled anything up with flouro. Don't see any reason to as I like the uni knot.

I had alot of backlash problems with the ice version. Won't use it again, except for maybe leaders.

I tried it and didn't like it. I think it is very susceptible to breakage on hooksets. I would pay the money for berkely 100% flouro.

I agree with super duty...
