    Default line color


    Is there one color type that works best on Truman? Or is it just a matter of choice? Iam a mono type guy.

    Hi-vis mono for me. Went with 20# braid in yellow but I found that it fades out to white after and it gets so limp that I was always wrapped around the rod tip. Changed to 15# P-line in hi-vis chartreuse and love it. Use it on dipping rods as well as spider rigging.

    When my braid starts to fade I put yellow chartreuse spike it dye on it.

    There will be days when the fishing is better than one's most optimistic forecast, others when it is far worse. Either is a gain over just staying home.

    I use mono, the mr. Crappie or other brands hi vis yellow type. I prefer 6# because I can hardly break the 8#.
    I had too much trouble getting the line unwrapped on my front eyelet with braid.

    Use any you like, the color is for you.
    I'll smoke just about anything (in my smoker)
    The fishing is always great. The catching varies.
