Recommended Posts

it's new. i was gonna try it, but now i don't know. i could buy it and hate it then have to go buy super braid and wish i would have dumped the 20 bucks in the tank instead. i think i'll wait a year or two and read reviews. recession? what recession? big thing will be whether it hold's up and does'nt fray easily. we'll see sleep.gif mabe i'll get the 30# and try that. i use original spiderwire for that and it frays easy. can't be any worse. i just like it for distance as it gives me the most on my 250 TE/DC

I've heard some good things about it (from a guy who is a walking encyclopedia of fishing gear knowledge...he knows about everything, and tries everything...esp. if it can be used for muskies!) and it made me curious so I ordered some. No personal experience with it yet, but it won't be long!

If it is anything like the regular Spiderwire, I will most likely be spooling it up on a couple casting rods for bass this year. I have three rods that could use some fresh braid. For braid, I typically get two or three seasons on it, depending on use of the particular rod.

theres my dilema. does ultra cast really cast better than the original? if it does then is it at least as durable as the original? the original has pretty bad durability for river fishing so if it's worse i will pass. so what's the skinny on ultra-cast vs. original i guess is my question?

What do you think of the flame green Suffix? They advertise that it glows under a black light - could come in handy when night fishing. But thinking back to the "black light" days in college, maybe I don't want to go that route...

I use SpiderWire Invisi Braid and let's just say after I spooled it up on my calcutta. I will probably never spool anything eles on it ever again. Its awesome and def worth the extra $

    • Yeah it was a beatdown
    • Your kid needs to stay with him!👍
    • My kid was eating in Beverly Hills and ran into this guy. Talked to him a bit and wished him luck in the game tonight.     
    • 🤔as a recovering machinist!🤣🤣that must make me a recovering welder!
    • As a recovering machinist, I can appreciate that.  If the spec is 0.001 - 0.0015, then clearly the correct measurement is 0.00125, duh…
    • I just figured that it is easy enough to just get a 3 bank so when the boat is not in use I can keep all 3 batteries charged. I have not bough a charger yet, maybe I will give it some more thought. Edit: After thinking this over, with the size, weight, and heat output of the charger (as well as the cost) I think it makes sense to just buy a 2 bank charger, I have a smaller charger i can use on the starting battery when the boat is sitting at home. Forgive me, for i am a retired engineer and I have to obsess over everything...
    • Congrats on the motor!  I think you’ll like it.   I can’t say much on the charger location but I’ve seen them under the lid in back compartments and under center rod lockers.  160 degrees is more than I expected to hear.   Curious why you’re opting for a 3 bank charger with a 24V trolling motor.  Unless you don’t feel you be running you big motor enough to keep that battery up as well?
    • I did buy an Minnkota Ulterra, thanks for the recommendations. I had a bunch of Cabela"s bucks saved up, which helped. Now i need to get an onboard battery charger. Where do you guys mount these things in your boat? The manufacturer I am looking at {Noco genius) says tht their 3-bank charger will run at 160 degrees, seems like a lot of heat in an enclosed compartment? Thanks for any input on this.
    • You're very lucky a troop of Sea Monkey's didn't carry you away.   
    • Wasn't terrible at a state park beach. Antelope island maybe.  I wouldn't recommend it as a beach destination tho.  Figured I was there, I'm getting in it.
