For the nano to leader, which is 4lb clear blue Stren, I use the double uni with good passage through the guides. 2 rods rigged with it. It has terrible abrasion resistance but has landed LMB up to 2 1/2lb on a scale and numerous crappie very close to the same weight. Also admit that it isn’t for everyone but it has sure boated a lot of fish for me. The 4lb isn’t near as limp but still does a good job for 1/32 and up in jig size. I’ll try the fireline crystal when I can find it for a price that doesn’t rival a retirement payment.

    And thanks to everyone for their input. I’ll put this Gliss stuff through the test but it will be trash bound if it falls short.
    I just ordered this...Berkley FireLine Micro Ice 2/.50 it has the diameter of 1/2 pound test, I want to see how far it will throw a trout magnet.

    gliss is ok but as stated earlier it is not made to last. I bought a spool and put it on and within a month I just trashed it and went back to Fireline and have not been back

    Yes, just 50 yards, but that's all I need, I'll just tie it to the FireLine 4/1 and see how it does.

    Why not get a full spool?
