SuthernHaze Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 wouldnt this fix the problem of braid line visibility Quote
OnthePotomac Posted March 3, 2009 Posted March 3, 2009 No, it will not. It is not invisible under water and the company will admit that it is not. I think it is called marketng. I like Ultra Cast a great deal, but use the green where I fish. Quote
Super User KYntucky Warmouth Posted March 3, 2009 Super User Posted March 3, 2009 I have heard it referred to as invisirope....honestly I don't think it's possible to have an invisible braid. Quote
Super User David P Posted March 4, 2009 Super User Posted March 4, 2009 It's not invisible what so ever, I have some 10lb invisibraid which is 2lb diameter, even it is HIGHLY visible. Green braid is much less visible then this stuff. Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted March 4, 2009 Super User Posted March 4, 2009 I tried the 30# Invisabraid and found that it digs into itself on the reel spool under tension more than any other braid I have tried. My thought of why, is because the finish is so slick. I tried it on baitcasting and spinning grear with the same result. I even tried it on the old Spidercast baitcaster which is designed to cross wind to prevent digging in, but it still did it. I purchased it for it's above water visibility. Just another line that failed the functional test. Quote

Rangerjoe Posted March 4, 2009 Posted March 4, 2009 Used the 30 and 50 lb. all last year and didn't have a problem of digging in. I normally tie my braid to a fence post and the walk off as far as I think I can cast and then reel it back on under a lot of tension. This process I believe prevents digging in on any braid. I also color the first 3 - 4 feet of line black so it is no more visible then the green, but I can see it. Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted March 4, 2009 Super User Posted March 4, 2009 Rangerjoe, I do somewhat the same when spooling on braids. But all that compactness is lost while fishing. I don't put the line under a lot of tension during a retrieve when plastic worm fishing. Quote
