    Default Braided line question.


    I am hunting a high visibility braided line that will glow under a black light does anyone know of one they would recommend. The better sensitivity and smaller diameter of braid have me hooked but I need something I can see better and would like to be able to use it for night fishing.

    Thanks.

    Wow
    I just watched a YouTube video on the moonshine under a black light. Holy cow. When I read this thread my first thought was ain't no way braid can glow. Slick 8 is or was my favorite but it don't suit my budget, but if I was headed night fishing. When I used it I believed I could feel my minnow start trying to swim away and vibrate the line just right before a bite

    I have some that I have used for 7 years now. I haven't noticed any reduction in strength.

    I cut a yard off my braid & retie every month. I do like the PP line.

    I have not found that color local to me. I ordered it and had it in a few days. The last one I ordered was 8 pound strength 1 pound diameter.
