    Default Braided line color


    I'm looking at getting some new braided line for my trolling rods. I have used yellow since the start, but the choices I have are yellow, orange, and green. Which of these colors would show up the best? I will be pulling planer boards.

    Thanks,

    Of those 3 the yellow. Have tried them all and I started using some white fused line from Stren. Just my eyes I guess but I can see it better.

    I think some people use some of the other colors because it's easier to get then untangled when you can tell which one is which. If there is such a thing as being easier untangling braid.

    Make sure the line you choose is UV protected. If you go with Yellow, get the P-Line hi viz. I've been using it for 2years and it's still the same color as when new. Of course, that's mono.

    All braid will fade, or wash out the color and turn white.

    I tried Suffix and another brand in orange. Good while it lasted but both faded quick. Think I would try the Bonehead orange braid. Guys who have used it really like it and say it does not fade like the others.

    I haven't tried the Bonehead braid. I've heard some positive comments about it tho.
