I had a couple of issues with Bonehead products and, after finally contacting Josh, was extremely impressed with his customer service. He bent over backwards to resolve my issues. I wish more companies had as good customer service as Bonehead.
People will make their choices based on their own experience. Like DB42, I'm an avid Viscious fan. Josh sent me a free roll of his mono and it seems very good. It was 10 lb clear so it went on other than Crappie gear and I haven't used it much. It seems slick but it also is stiffer than what I normally use. I have had such good luck with Viscious (and Wally's line) I probably won't change soon. The primary reason tho' is pricepoint. I can get 300 yds Bonehead or 1500 yds of Mr Crappie or 2360 yds of Viscious all for $6.99. Having never had a problem with the latter two I'm not likely to change. Like DB42 I'm not too old to try something new (but I am probably too cheap.)
My absolute favorite Bonehead product is the EVA bobbers. They are a little pricey but worth every penny. I like to slip cork and they are my favorite bobber for sure. If you haven't tried them you need to. The Bonehead plastics and jigheads are good but there is such a proliferation of makers you can choose from several. I have some of Boneheads as well as others.
Remember, most fishing stuff is designed to attract fishermen instead of fish. Try em all and make your own choice for spending your $$. Just relax and have fun fishing.
