bwell Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 I just respooled my worm rod with this stuff............... And LOVE it! I just might have to respool all my rigs with this. I never would have thought casting would have been so smooth. A+ to Yo-Zuri, Roadwarrior and others for getting me turned on to this line! Quote
BassmanfromNC Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 It is a nice line. What lb are you using. Quote
bwell Posted March 11, 2010 Author Posted March 11, 2010 I am using 15lb, and it is working out very well for me. Quote
JigMe Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 After reading few post from roadwarrior, and I have started to use Hybrid 12lb. It is awesome, and works very well. Quote
hmongkidBee Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 yea it's a very good line. I'm not fully committed to it as of yet, because I also use seaguar abrazx and invizx. But it's a very good line, and very cheap for a good quality line. Quote
crankbait2009 Posted March 11, 2010 Posted March 11, 2010 After reading few post from roadwarrior, and I have started to use Hybrid 12lb. It is awesome, and works very well. x2 i use green 100% of the time Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted March 12, 2010 Super User Posted March 12, 2010 For worming, I sated with the 12lb, and dropped to the 10lb..I use the 15 for a Leader on my swimbait rig.. ;D Quote
Jason Penn Posted March 12, 2010 Posted March 12, 2010 For worming, I sated with the 12lb, and dropped to the 10lb..I use the 15 for a Leader on my swimbait rig.. ;D I've been thinking of trying the Hybrid in 12# but don't know how it compares with "normal" line. I used to use PLine CXXtra strong in 12# (15# was just too stiff) would you happen to know how the Hybrid compares with the PLine 12#? Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted March 12, 2010 Super User Posted March 12, 2010 Sorry jason, I haven't used P Line..I'm sure someone can help you though..Oh, re: the 12lb, I always use the hybrid ultrasoft..very managable imho..for comparision, I like it better than izorline xxxx in 12lb. if that helps at all. Btw, while I was at the Fred hall show, I asked the Yozuri rep about applying KVD line conditioner to the hybrid, he said that it cannot penetrate the line so it's preety much usless to apply it, that goes for the ultrasoft too. I know RW, likes to use the KVD line conditioner. Quote

Super User roadwarrior Posted March 12, 2010 Super User Posted March 12, 2010 If you like P-Line, I think you will like Yo-Zuri Hybrid, but some people don't. That will always be the case with most things. Try it for yourself and see. The line is not expensive, you can experiment without much risk. Good luck! 8-) Quote

Super User roadwarrior Posted March 12, 2010 Super User Posted March 12, 2010 No. I find KVD makes a noticeable difference. -Kent Quote
Super User eyedabassman Posted March 12, 2010 Super User Posted March 12, 2010 RW, Do you fish any Flou. line? If so what do you like? The reason I ask is I was in a tournament last year and I lost a good 5 lb'er next to the boat because my line broke and that cost me 1 st. place and big fish! I was fishing the XPS Flou. line and I have other people say that this line will just brake on you at times. So I thought I would just see what you fish and like. Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 12, 2010 Super User Posted March 12, 2010 Seaguar Inviz #8 for spinning tackle. AbrazX #12 for baitcasting gear. I'm just starting to experiment, but so far I like these lines. The downside is their cost: $16 and $20 for 200 yards. Ouch! 8-) Quote

And the XPS is not a cheap line $$ so that Seaguar is not too much more of a cost! How long have you been fishing the Seaguar? Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 12, 2010 Super User Posted March 12, 2010 It's just part of the mix, one rod with each. No more than 10 fishing hours on each. So far, no issues and most surprising, very little memory. Don't read too much into this, I'm still Mr. Yo-Zuri! ;D ;D Quote
FishinTN Posted March 12, 2010 Posted March 12, 2010 I've tried both yo-zuri and p-line. I prefer yo-zuri. It's not expensive, and is great line. I've tried 10 and 15#. Quote
Super User Hammer 4 Posted March 12, 2010 Super User Posted March 12, 2010 Kent, we must have 2 different batches of yozuri then...I find that it makes no difference, as the line works great off the spool as is.. No.I find KVD makes a noticeable difference. -Kent Quote
WdyCrankbait Posted March 12, 2010 Posted March 12, 2010 yeah, that is great line. I wish they would make the XTEX Yo-Zuri line again! Quote
Super User RoLo Posted March 12, 2010 Super User Posted March 12, 2010 yeah, that is great line. I wish they would make the XTEX Yo-Zuri line again! X-Tex Cobra?? Surely you jest. Quote
WdyCrankbait Posted March 12, 2010 Posted March 12, 2010 yep, that is the line. I loved it, but I was using it on ultra-light tackle fishing small. But, using logic and noticing it is no longer made, I am sure it was really not a good line in the long run. Quote

And the XPS is not a cheap line $$ so that Seaguar is not too much more of a cost! How long have you been fishing the Seaguar? Rw, I did load up on the Yo-Zuri. But BPS was out of the Seaguar Inviz but only had 12 so I bought that for my BC. And the Seaguar AbrazX they only had 6 lb. so I bought the Seaguar Red Label. in 8 lb. Do you know anything about the line? I did but it for my spinning. Thanks Quote
phisherman Posted March 15, 2010 Posted March 15, 2010 I haven't tried the Ultra Soft yet but the regular Yo Zuri Hybrid (10-lb test) on my Scorpion reels and it has given me some issues. Main problem I have had with it is that it has too much memory for my liking - Note: I haven't used it with any kind of line conditioner. But it does cast a mile and has very good abrasion resistence. Now if only I could get rid of the memory issue so it can sit tight on my spool like braid does... Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 15, 2010 Super User Posted March 15, 2010 Inviz is MUCH softer than AbrazX. I haven't tried Red Label. 8-) Quote
