I am looking to get braid for my finesse setups and I like something I can see. What brand do you guys use that doesn’t fade after one cast? Thanks!

I'm a fan of 832 Yellow - the neon green isn't quite as visible to me.

I'm really happy with 832. I'm using the neon green and might try the yellow.

Ok thanks. The suffix 832 I assume?

Yes. Their 131 is even better but I don't believe it's available in hi viz colors. It's also about twice the price.

gunna be the oddball here but I spooled up some Yo-Zuri superbraid in blue and have been really liking it. Easy to see and hasnt faded on me yet.

Another 832 yellow. However, I’ve been intrigued by the new finesse braid and might pick up a spool…

I'm testing the Revolve in 6# on my UL Crappie rig already...very limp, very castable.

From the feel of it at academy, it sure feels nice. I had a mishap with my spinning rig on Monday making me miss a (my opinion) huge fish (most likely a piece of hydrilla but whatever). Anyway, came home and spooled on some new flouro, but really am thinking I might go grab a spool of the finesse braid tomorrow…

If you get the finesse spool let me know how it goes!

There is a bright lime green/chartreuse 131 available on the European market, but that's even more expensive still. Really wish they'd release that Stateside as I'm a fan of the 131 and would love a hi viz option.

When my vision got bad enough that I couldn't see mono or fluorocarbon first I tried Sunline BMS, which has some colored sections.  That worked for a while then got where I couldn't see it either so I went to hi vis yellow 832.  The brightness kinda bothered me even though I colored 3 feet of it with a sharpie.  They now have 832 in Sunrise which is a darker "hi vis" but I can still see it.

I don't use a leader.  The lakes I fish have dirty water with 12 inches or less of visibility.

832 hi-viz yellow and green both are great.

I run PowerPro 10lb high visibility yellow braid on all my spinning rods. Serves me well.
