Anyone ever used Mr Crappie fishing line?

I recently purchased 2 Mr. Crappie spinning combos that i use for fishing minnows under lights at night. They came spooled with 6lb test Mr Crappie hi vis mono. Its chartrues colored. I normally use 6lb Stren clear blue. Has anyone had any experience with this line? Please share so i know whether or not to change it out for this weekend. I am going to Russell to give them a shot.

I have it spooled on all my rods now. It's good line and the color doesnt stop the fish from biting.

It is strong line but unravels from some of my spinning reels at times I don't want it to.

I use it 8lb and 10lb which ever is available. Just use it spider rigging. It works fine

Be sure you spool it onto your reel the same as it lays on the spool it comes on. If not it will roll off your reel.

Thanks guys! I have been a Bass Fishermen for 15 years and have only been Crappie fishing at night with minnows all these years. I have been doing plenty of reading lately on this forum trying to learn about using Jigs. I have never caught a Crappie on a jig and have really only tried them 4 or 5 times that i can remember. I hope to start giving it more of a try. Its just so hard to leave the bass rods at home when its daylight!

Unfortunately I learned that lesson the hard way on my bass and catfishing outfits... I spooled up 10 different reels at one time, not paying any attention to this and 7 out of the 10 were wrong.. i ended up letting out all of the line behind the boat and reeling it all back in to get the twist out.. it was quite irritating!

I use the 4 lb green on my reels. It is a lot tougher than you think 4 lb should be.

I started using it last year and think I am gonna continue with it. It seems to be very tough and I haven't run into any major issues with it.
