Super User WRB Posted March 22, 2018 Super User Posted March 22, 2018 Just want to point out the Fins braid doesn't color run or fade like all the other brand of braids tend to do. The fact it's made in Kentucky is a plus to me. Tom 1 Quote

I'm hoping to find some pink or another color that women would enjoy. If not I'll use power pro hi viz yellow that I already have. Any suggestions or thought on spiderwire stealth pink camo? I personally don't like spiderwire on my spinning reels due to the waxy feeling it has, but haven't tried it in 10 or 15 lb test. Also having trouble finding kastking pink braid. While I certainly can't speak for the entire sisterhood ( nor would I try to) "pink" anything related to outdoor fishing/hunting would not be welcome anywhere within a hundred miles of me. And even that might be too close. Just my two cents. 2 Quote

Not that I have noticed; I have been using it on 2 reels for the past 2 years, including one on a Fenwick Eagle with cork handle. Frankly, I bought it because it was in the clearance aisle and was in the size range I like for spinning. I looked at the one in my trunk after this post and saw that it has a light red color. I didn't think about where it was made, and maybe I should have. Good idea to heed the advice of the experienced guys that commented above. That said, the red Power Pro has worked just fine for my purposes. 1 Quote
Super User WRB Posted March 23, 2018 Super User Posted March 23, 2018 Pink rods, pink reels are both made for the female angler market or who ever else likes pink. Pink lures like bubble gum and morning dawn are made to catch bass without consideration of who may be using them. Pink line has been around a long time like Ande pink mono dates back over 30 years and popular with salt water anglers. Don't turn up your nose at the color pink, you are missing a good bass catching color. Tom 1 Quote
