    I’m already a big fan of Varivas line, and love their braid too. I’ve used several of the nylon mono lines with good success. If you think casting is good with the 8lb, you should see me pitch a 1/16 with the 3lb. It goes into the next zip code! As slab said, very limp and superior casting to anything I’ve used thus far. The sensitivity and casting with the braid is like nothing else its size. Hookset consist of a snap of the wrist and the hooks are driven home from the no stretch qualities of most all braided lines. Win this line or not, I’ll be using Varivas for a long time to come.

    I haven't tried the Varivas line yet, but am willing to, and give my honest opinion of it.

    Worth testing it out at least one time, might be my next go to line.

    It's not the numbers or the size, it's the time spent on the water!

    I usually crappie fish with 8 lb Seaguar Red label for the last several years. It seems to have went down in quality to me in the last two-three years. I have more problems with it and am ready to move on to something else. May give the Varivas a try.

    I use 8 lb with some 6 lb and l love a good casting fishing line for casting lighter weight jigs and not breaking them off when I l get hung up in the brush.

    I am willing to give Varivas Line a try. I haven't gotten any yet, but sure willing to give it a whirl. 8 lb is about as heavy as I fish.

    As us fishermen know, we can never have too much new equipment (lines, lures, rods, reels) to experiment with!
