    I have been using Mr. Crappie 8# test for just about everything and it has been great. Even pulled cranks with it.

    I really like the sufix elite. If you buy it by the big spool it is very cheap for what you get. I paid 8.99 for a 1000yds of 4lb on ebay the other day. I prefer it over the vicious it is a little rounder and the way they spool it you get less memory on the reel. I had a 10lb carp on the other day and i cinched the drag down till the line was making those pinging noises when it pulled and i got it in the boat. Dont see much need for higher pound test. Think about the size of the hook you are pulling on.

    It is available in hi viz as well although i have only seen it in the 330 yard spool in those colors.

    If you're using 10# mono, buy a bulk spool of Berkley Big Game in the hi-vis solar collector color and you'll be set. I use it for most of my mono needs from crappie to grouper and everything in between. Less than 10#, I've been using Vicious with great results for the last 2 years.

    Alright after a few hours of poking around the web I'm have decided to order a spool of pline cx premium. It's a copolymer line that's floro coated. Only thing I'm a little concerned about will be the knot slippage. When I get the line and use it a few times I will give some feedback on the line

    I used Mr. crappie Hi-Viz 6lb for spider rigging and 8lb for pulling cranks. The 6lb will straighten out hooks on jigs and the 8lb is plenty tough enough for cranks. I only broke off 2 crankbaits all year and that was my fault for not re-tying.

    I have 2 poles with small diameter Braid on spinning reels and like and Hate the stuff at the same time. the poles are 11 feet set up for spider rigging so small weights are on the main line with no leaders --- when setting hooks the Braid will tie loop Knots around the sinkers above the hooks and make snarls that will not untangle.. Reriging is always going on with Braid ---- My other 4 poles use 12 # Florocarbon. If the crappie are tight Lipped the Catfish are willing and they get way bigger

    I have tried them all and the best I have used is the Mr. Crappie 4 & 6 lbs test.
