The Area Trout Super Infinity 8 Stranded PE line is a great cast and retrieve line......but.....it is not designed to be very visible as compared to the Sight Edition and other brightly colored braided lines. From what I gather through research the line is designed for a stealth approach to catch trout in "Areas", which are big clear man-made ponds over in Japan that are stocked with trout. Of course these stocked trout get line shy after a while, thus the champagne color. I use it for open water cast and retrieve on the boat mainly with 1-1,5g jigheads with plastic baits fishing from shallow to medium (20') depths. I am not a line watcher, rely on the super sensitive JDM rods and this low stretch line to tell me when to set the hook, which is usually just a raise of the rod tip and a turn of the reel handle. I also have been using the Avani Saltwater Finesse 8 stranded braided line with some success, it is white but does stain to a dingy white to tan looking color with our dirty waters here in E TN. It is another one I would really not consider a cast and retrieve line for sight purposes only, but so far it has been equal to or better than the Infinity for bite detection and performance in open waters. Both these lines are not cheap and the Infinity lasted me almost a full year of fishing before a wind knot this Spring caused the eviction from my spool on the 20 Luvias. I now have two JDM reels spooled with the Avani and will be reporting on this line more often since our weather has finally decided to straighten up enough to get out on the boat and try to stick a few Panfish. Hope this helps, Randy has been using that line for cast and retrieve of spoons and spinners, which really does not require much visibility for bite detection, he reports a nice jolt from the line when the trout whack the moving bait, thus making setting the hook easier and faster with the low stretch of the braided line.
