Hi-viz line for me but the water is never gin clear. They can see a hook and still bite so I think the line I see best is what I will use. But an easy way to have both is use a leader of co=polymer, monofilament or fluorocarbon .

I wouldn't concern myself to much with brand. Mr Crappie is priced good , around here at least, but I do think it's most likely protruded by a major brand. Likely Pure Fishing.
Only so many plants that manufacture fishing line.

Merry Christmas
