Fireline Crystal??????

This may have been posted before,but has any of you fished this line and is it any good? And what kind of baits do you fish it on?  I don't like Fireline but I was thinking about trying this Crystal!

I've used it quite a bit on spinning outfits. I like the line but it looks white in the water - not so much so in the 10 lb size. It casts well and is strong but I've started using a leader with it.

Looks white in the water.  I prefer Suffix, but didtn't have any real problems with the Crystal.

My buddy used it on a redfishing trip we went on in March. The water was very muddy and you could see his line several feet underwater. I was not impressed. But I also hate fireline so I may be biased.

I can't say I've ever heard anything positive about Crystal.  When it first came out, I immediately thought I had found the end-all for tip-up leaders....quite a few fishermen I trust pointed me in a different direction very quickly.

On paper it sounds like a fantastic leader for tip-ups: a tuff line that is difficult for sluggish winter fish to spot.  I guess it's back to the drawing board; great ideas to go on though.
