I really like the Varivas lines. I’ve used Maxima in the past. I think for the same cost...that is if you’re ordering something else out if Japan to cover the shipping......it would be better. I don’t know how much ester will help you....but it is a hoot to fish with and extremely sensitive. If you don’t need a sinking line then just use some braid. My first foray into ester was 1.5# test. It was a ton of fun fishing for Gills with it.....but I literally could not see to tie it so I gave up on it. That was before I knew it came in colors. I think the 1.5# test line has a diameter of .090mm.
