Slyster Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 Overall I just love Fireline Crystal 6lb for almost all my rods. Even though it is '6 Lb' line.. just try breaking it... you can't! I never have fish break the line... unless it's via the teeth! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bassman55 Posted May 15, 2008 Share Posted May 15, 2008 I used to use Cabela's Ripcord Si for braid, but I am now switching to Power Pro and Suffix. For my mono it is either XT or XL depending on what I am fishing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moviking Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I use braid for spinners and jerk-bait baits, and vanish for everything else, jigs & worms. also for you texas riggers, try the perfect worm hook that Bass pro sells, we have been useing them for several years,and they are really nice to use Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RK Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 Never heard of Triple Fish?? I will have to look into that Hiya - I've been using Triple Fish the last couple of years. Started out using their Fluoro for muskie leaders, then their castable fluoro for bass fishing. It's great stuff. I think I posted this once before, but Lord knows where or when. So here's the scoop on Triple Fish, and Fluoro in general. Pretty much all the Fluorocarbon in the world is made in one of 3 plants, 2 in Japan, and one in Germany. It's a petroleum byproduct that gets used for all sorts of stuff depending on how it's formulated. All the fluoro for the major line companies other than Triple Fish come from Japan. The fluoro is manufactured, then formed into fishing line somewhere else. Triple Fish is manufactured in Germany, and formed into line at the plant, so it skips a step in the mfg process, which helps keep the cost way down. A 200yd spool of 12# is about 10 bucks. Plus it's just good stuff. I FAR prefer it to Trilene Fluoro frankly. For the record, I'm not on their pro staff or anything...I just like the line and buy it like everyone else.

Neighbor_guy Posted May 18, 2008 Share Posted May 18, 2008 Hey, you are not alone with the Iron Silk. It is on my pike gear and my topwater skum frog rod. I use it instead of braid. Looks like I am the only one using Silver Thread though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

slipperybob Posted May 19, 2008 Share Posted May 19, 2008 Hey, you are not alone with the Iron Silk. It is on my pike gear and my topwater skum frog rod. I use it instead of braid. Looks like I am the only one using Silver Thread though. Not the only one. I use AN40, Super, and Excalibur as well. Most consistent line I've ever used, from first thread down to last loop on spool. Also longest shelf life of line as well that I've used. I also like Gamma and YoZuri Hybrid as well. Both Gamma and YoZuri are stronger than Silverthread but Gamma has more memory and YoZuri is more stiff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
