    I have been using the same braid for spider rigging for three years. It is hivis and has absorbed so much muddy water it is now lowvis. Considering changing line. What type and size is your preference.

    I use the KastKing braid- 15# in hi vis, works very well and the price is good. Amazon or E-bay.

    Take that off and turn it around. You be back in the color. I have come to like power pro the best. Seems to hold its color better. And never had a problem with it. Most I have tried loose their color pretty quick.

    So you can pull loose and get your jigs and crankbaits back when they get hung up instead of losing them.

    You have never felt the thump of a crappie until you feel it with braid. The sensitivity of it is unreal!

    I'm going to try long lining with it if I can find some small enough. Braid and Litewire hooker's jigs will save me time and money!
