Thread: Varivas 6.5 pe

Your label is different than mine. I like the stuff. My label says 6.5 max, right under the diameter. Not sure if it’s the same but different pound test. It appears to be. Given the chance I fish bright line-so I can see it against the dark backdrop of the woods if fish around. Slab was right, it’s a dream to cast. Sorry if I gave the wrong idea about you liking it boss, not my intent. All of fish different, me more than most it seems. Makes it fun and a big accomplishment when I land something big on little line. Chances are good they gonna go back in the pool anyway so if they break off I’m only disappointed that I didn’t get to shake his fin. Or whatever.

Both are designed for ultralight fishing, however these 2 different models are made of different materials and have very different characteristics.

Thank you for the clarification. I can tell you this, that orange line has quickly become one of my favorite lines. I was a bit afraid the bright line would hurt the bite, but they did not care in the least. I also want to say thank you for the awesome coupon deal that allowed me to get a whole bunch of new lines to try.
