Hello all, would love to see if i could get some info from some mrmbers.... I am looking for an extra limp low memory 8lb test line for my single pole jigging in brush. Ive always been a 6lb guy but ive since started fishing for crappie in ohio river tributaries and they break it often. Any info appreciateed!!!
I got some high seas line for free a while back and I've been impressed with it. You might give it a try. I'm going to buy a role myself to give it a second try.

May try it out!!!!! I just hate it when u put new line on a spinning real, open the bail and it goes flying off. Or if you havent fished in a while and your line is all coiled up. Cast it and it looks like a slinky on top of tge water!!
Try som Super Slick 8 Power Pro Braid. I use the 15/4 stuff on me jigger poles. Git it @ Walmart.
Vicious 8# works well for me
After you put your line on the reel, run it through the rod and have some body walk about 60 or 70 feet of line off, lay it down and hold a damp paper towel around the line in front of the spool and reel the line back on pinching the line with the towel, you will be surprized how much twist comes out and how strait the line will be, been doen it for a long time. dont over fill spool your only using 20 ft or less on the reel most of the time.
I'm like Cane Pole. I prefer braid over mono just for that reason.
Ditto on the braid AND it lasts waaaayyyyyy longer than mono.
I use Power Pro or Sufix 8lb braid. To save money use a mono backer and then 50 yards of braid. This will allow you to do three reels with a 150 yard spool of braid.
I tried braid and hated how it buried its self into its self when you get hung up and have to pull hard to break it off or straighten the jig hook. You guys run into that much??
