Stren Crappie Line Sources

Hi all. I have pretty much settled on Stren Crappie as my go to mono line. Hi Viz is a must, and in 2 and 4 lb test it has been working real well. I need to get some new spools for replenishment and I have noticed that no one seems to have much of anything in stock. Cabelas doesn’t even list it. Anyone hear a rumor that the line is being discontinued, or maybe this is just a case where vendors haven’t gotten in their spring supplies. I’m looking for a one stop source for the above weights, and maybe a 6 lb as well. Any ideas for suppliers, my local shop doesn’t carry it.
Thanks,
Bob

Bob,
Amazon lists 2 and 6lb. Stren Crappie Hi vis Gold as in stock.
Fish USA lists 4lb. Stren Original Hi vis Gold as in stock.
Hope this helps.

Thanks, I did see the above. I was hoping for one stop for everything. I’m hoping vendors are waiting until February to get in their merchandise. It is a popular line and I wouldn’t think was being discontinued. Even pure fishing only has 4 lb listed. I never tried Stren original in gold so don’t know how it handles, softness, etc.

I’ve always found my stren at bait shops or even Walmart. I’ll buy it wherever I get the opportunity to. If I have to use two places, I use them.

Stren Crappie is not easy to find. My local Walmart hasn’t stocked it in almost three years. Same goes for Cabela’s.

I can't find 4# Hi Vis Mr Crappie either in these parts.

Charley Brewer Slider Company has the Wally Marshall hi vis 4 and 6 lb. line.

Where ever you find it make sure it’s fresh or you want be happy I have purchased several name brand lines that apparently set on a shelf for to long because it had lost its strength so in the garbage they went . Made me very dislike the product and it was simply because it was old line .

Good point, and that’s why it’s sometimes better to wait closer to spring hoping the stock is fresher.

I know you asked about Stren, but here is a new product coming out soon. I have been satisfied with this company's lines. If it doesn't come in to stock until the 21st, at least it will be fresh. 330yd of 4# for $10.59. May be worth a try. Created for your need to see it.
