    Default Looking for good Hi-vis


    Just wondering if vicious panfish line is worth giving a shot. I know there's some people on here that use it and I was looking to gain a little feedback before I purchase some. Is it a pretty decent line? Looked on their site and seen they have a big spool pretty cheap. That would really help to spool up all my reels and stop spending so much $$ on line......thanks in advance!!

    I started using viscious panfish last year, and have had no problems. It will definately be my new crappie fishing line. This year I bought some regular viscious mono to try on the rest of my rods.

    I have not tried the Viscious yet but I am going to. I have been using Cabelas ProLine in High Vis Yellow....I really like it. Its inexpensive and works very well.
    I have spent most my life fishing........the rest I wasted.

    I've been using P-line CX Premium and have been impressed. It casts and fishes well and, unlike most lines, the "pound test" printed on the box is actually close to the truth.

    You can get it online at either Bass Pro or Cabelas.

    Been using it for two years now and its great.Cast good and has hardly any memory. I was using 6lbs mister crappie hi-vis but when it went to being made in tiawan it got pretty bad on memory so i swithed to viscious. 8lbs viscious is the same diameter as 6lbs mister crappie so i use the 8lbs and it works out good.
    There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.

    It's also the same diameter as 10# Trilene XL. (That's Vicious flourocarbon -- did not get a chance to compare the mono.)

    So, 6# Mr. Crappie = 8# Vicious = 10# Trilene.

    What's wrong with that picture?
