FrankTheRabbit Posted June 28, 2011 Report Share Posted June 28, 2011 I've used Raven 8lb hi-vis line and found it to be alright. Others have mentioned that it's a terrible line. The hi-vis line is a benefit to you, but can also allow the fish to detect the offering as well. What you may need to do is attach a shot-line (by the means of a swivel or uni-knot of around 12"-14") and then attach a leader (about 18"-24"). I've recently switched to Stren (moss green colour) and that removed the need to use a shot line. The more things you have on your line, the more chances of a break off when fighting a fish. Like they say, "less is more" in this situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
