I use 10 lb Mr Crappie high vis vellow for everything

I have used the Mr Crappie line and it was fine, never used the Vicious. I use 4lb Trilene clear now.Quote:

I use 4lb test Mr Crappie Hi Vis for casting/shooting, and 6lb Mr Crappie Hi Vis for Spider rigging/longlining. Love it, plenty strong.
I use it and love it. 4-10#
I use Mr. Crappie 6 lb. hi vis most of the time but I do have 2 rods set up with Mr. Crappie 6 lb. camo just incase I feel the need to be more stealthy.
8 pound Power Pro to a 4 pound fluorocarbon leader.

I use the 6# camo. No probs. I like it.
I use 6lb Mr crappie, I switched from 4lb because I had lost too many fish because the line broke.
I have a friend that has the camo line on all his reels and I believe that it will be in the trash and replaced with hi vis by the next time I see him.
6 lb Mr Crappie high vis held up good last week when I snagged and landed about a 3 1/2 foot gar , wanted my road runner back
Use it, love it.
I have used it in 6lb....I thought it was okay. But for casting on spinning reels i thought the memory was a little too much and it did not fish as easy as I like.
I always seem to go back to Trilene easy cast and I always use the green color.
If I am fishing shallow in the green tinted lakes we have around here I always catch more fish on it then hi-viz . And I am not trying to start and argument about I'm stating what I have found.
Fishing deeper I don't think it makes much difference. I don't pay much attention what I use on a long pole fishing deeper.
However...if it's pretty clear and the fish are tentative 6lb but especially 4lb green mono line will make them get over it usually. I have used it surf fishing, to Ozark streams and lakes , swamps,ponds and lowland reservoirs and highland reservoirs.....and for shy biters it seems to fool them.
really dark green lines do not work as well for me as the translucent green. It seems to get lost in the water where as dark green stands out more.I really think it works about as well as fluorocarbon.
Berkeley Trilene Sensation is the toughest, smallest diameter line I have found. I use 4lb hivis orange for dock shooting and 8lb green for jigging/trolling. Its a little more expensive and hard to find in stores. But Im telling you it is super tough and flys off the reel with little tangle or memory.
Just my 2 cents! One Crappie addict to another!
Have had good luck with Vicious Hi-vis 4 lb., although heard a little while back they may not be producing in the US anymore, if validated would be a deal breaker, thus hunting for alternative line myself........
I use to be a trilene fan for over 20yrs but the last 2yrs I have gotten a hold of a few bad spools and quit using it because the quality seems to be nothing close to what it was a few yrs back.
I use mr crappie 6# camo on all my reels ,land lots of muskie up to 25# and lots of walleye up to 5# and have no problems with it.works great for crappie too.
