[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I see Burkley has a fairly new fluorocarbon line out;[/size][/black][/font]

[font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3]I was wondering if any of you has used this new line? And how it compares to the old reliable Vanish. That Burkley makes? Ease of knot tying? Line memory? Etc...

Hey Baitcaster, long time no see, I haven't used that new line , but I think that I will stick with the Fireline and Vanish. JMHO.

[font "Comic Sans MS"][size 2][#002850]BC, there are [url "http://www.google.com/products?hl=en&resnum=0&q=bass+pro+fluorocarbon&um=1&ie=UTF-8&sa=X&oi=product_result&resnum=1&ct=title"][#bf6000]lots of fluros out there[/#bf6000][/url] these days and I don't know much about any of them. I prefer my fluorocarbon to be as colorless as possible. And I kind of prefer the [url "http://www.basspro.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/Product_10151_-1_10001_37510?cm_mmc=froogle-_-100-10-1-_--1-_-38-424-080-20&hvarAID=froogle&mr:trackingCode=5A5C62CA-C66A-DC11-BE2A-001422107090&mr:referralID=NA"][#bf6000]Bass Pro xps[/#bf6000][/url] as it seams to be just a little bit easier to tie. I still prefer my 20 lb Berkley Vanish for tiger musky because it seams to be a bit more resistant to abrasion. But all other fishing I use XPS. I never use it as main line ... fluro for leader only ... like what AFDan said ... braided main line and fluro leader.

The other night I bought some of that green stuff your picture shows in 8 lb. I used at the Berry the other day and thought it was OK.[/#002850][/size][/font]

[Wink][font "Comic Sans MS"][black][size 3] Yooooo Howdy AFD:: I too am planning sticking to Fireline and Leader style of fishing. I just was wondering if this new stuff was worth buying, and giving a try? After all I did switch to XPS from the older Vanish. Now I like to stay/keep on the leading edge of Hi-tech. So thats "Just me".[/size][/black][/font]

The line is exceptionally good. I use it to fish Barracuda.

I use 6lb test on my Bass reels. Brings the Barries home.[cool]
