Braided line question.

I am hunting a high visibility braided line that will glow under a black light does anyone know of one they would recommend. The better sensitivity and smaller diameter of braid have me hooked but I need something I can see better and would like to be able to use it for night fishing.

Thanks.

I use Power Pro Slick 8 the color is Moonshine.

Wow
I just watched a YouTube video on the moonshine under a black light. Holy cow. When I read this thread my first thought was ain't no way braid can glow. Slick 8 is or was my favorite but it don't suit my budget, but if I was headed night fishing. When I used it I believed I could feel my minnow start trying to swim away and vibrate the line just right before a bite

I have some that I have used for 7 years now. I haven't noticed any reduction in strength.

Informative thread! Thanks!

I cut a yard off my braid & retie every month. I do like the PP line.

I second this... Good stuff

Thanks guys looks like I have to see if I can pick up some Power Pro Super Slick 8 in Moonshine real soon that YouTube video looks like exactly like what I need . Doing my internet searches and Youtube searches I missed this one. Thanks again that is the reason I asked on Crappie.com . Now to find some locally or place an order.

I have not found that color local to me. I ordered it and had it in a few days. The last one I ordered was 8 pound strength 1 pound diameter.

Sheltons has it. Just picked some up yesterday

Thanks I ordered some online wish I had seen your post first. What lb test do they have in stock at Shelton's? I hate to go to Shelton's I always come back broke!

Thanks

Think they had 15, 20, 30 and 50. Might have had more. I run 20 with fluorocarbon leader for bass fishing.

Prater, thanks, I need to make it to Shelton's soon. I am trying to get set up to do some night time crappie and bass fishing and need another spinning rod and reel.

Where is Sheltons?

Damion,
Even though it would be somewhat out of your way going home from work one day or on Saturday you should swing by. They have a lot of fishing equipment at a good price. This is a country clothing store, Carhart, Wrangler, Levi's, insulated overalls, shoes, boots. Tons of rods, reels, bulk plastic bait by the lb. and all sorts of fishing tackle. Take the wife along and let her look around too. Look them up on the internet or Facebook and call to confirm their hours during this time...I heard they just opened back up this week. Coming from Cullman they are not too far off Hwy 157 before you get to the first red light in Moulton.

Ok. I know exactly where it is. Just didn’t know they carried fishing stuff. I need some jeans so that would give me a good excuse to go. Lol

Sheltons used to be a hole in the wall place to go buy some jeans and shirts. Now they have a pretty impressive tackle section. It rivals any big box store, but at way better prices. Some things are the same price but you can’t beat their rod and reel prices.

Do they have plueger reels?

I think so. They have a bunch. Most are on sawed off rods so you can reel them and see how they feel.

They do have Pflueger reels, they are up by the front door.

Well I swung by Shelton's after work yesterday but they did not have the Power Pro Moonshine in anything below 40lb, looks like they had sold out. They had 40, 50 and 65 lb test. I had to pass since I am wanting to try 20 lb on my spinning rigs. But they had some nice rods at a price I could not pass on, and the Ned Rigs in the color I have not been able to find anywhere else. So it was still well worth the trip.

Dang, well they will get more in before too long. Once the Ned rig craze hit people are buying it up like crazy.
