LazyBASS1301600404 Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 Strictly for dropshotting on a spinning outfit. Fluorocarbon. The line I use now is Vanish and it will be the last time I spool it with this brand. Sometimes if I try to cast far I will get a nice bird nest type about 2 feet above my dropshot rig. So I will take any suggestions and try them out. Thanks!!! Quote
Super User Hooligan Posted March 5, 2011 Super User Posted March 5, 2011 Tatsu or Invizx. Edit: Stren Fluorocast. I forgot about it when I posted this. I'm really impressed with it thus far. Quote

Luke at Gouldsboro Posted March 5, 2011 Posted March 5, 2011 You will see every brand of line posted here. Everyone has their own choice. You just have to experiment for yourself and find one you like ( and one within your price range, if it matters). I personally like yo zuri hybrid ultra soft.... Quote
Global Moderator Bluebasser86 Posted March 5, 2011 Global Moderator Posted March 5, 2011 I've had terrible luck with Vanish personally. I use P-line floroclear most of the time. It's not a straight floro but it's coated with it so it's still pretty hard to see under water. As for the tangle issue, make sure you flip the bait by hand after the cast and don't reel against the drag if a fish is pulling. Also make sure you use a good dropshot weight. I tried to use a regular bell sinker and it caused line twist like crazy! Quote
Mr SwimJig Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 SeaGuar InvizX or Tatsu, both are excellent lines. SJ Quote

Super User NorcalBassin Posted March 6, 2011 Super User Posted March 6, 2011 I'll assume you don't have the time or money to experiment with a number of fluoros to see which is best, so I'll recommend Invizx. If your budget is bigger than that, go with the Tatsu. If your budget is below that, Yo-Zuri Ultra Soft (hybrid). Quote
BassThumb Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 In my opinion, 6 lb test in particular is where copolyer line really shines. You should give it a shot if you haven't already. Yo Zuri Ultra Soft or P-Line CXX. I've pulled my boat against wind and waves trying to break off on a snag with 6 lb CXX, an amazingly tough line considering how easy it is to work with. If you're set on fluoro, I'd recommend 6 lb. Seaguar Invizx. It's very soft and manageable, and is my favorite fluoro for spinning tackle. Quote

Give them both a try and see what you think. 8-) Quote
LazyBASS1301600404 Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 I think I am going to go with the invisx, I use this stuff for my trout gear. thanks all for the insight! Quote
Jason_Barnucz Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 Been using 100% Berkley FC. Never an issue. A chapter member recently recommended Invisx to me. I may give this a shot this year. Quote
