Fished the new Varivas low stretch line.....and yes Stan I like it a lot. Just after a couple of outings I can tell it is my now go to nylon line. Had a dozen trout yesterday and a dozen today on the Rayz Spectra using the Forest MIU Abalone spoon. All the trout today around same size...which is not surprising really. Loving the rod...line...and of course the new spoons.

Hey great catch on the new nylon. I have about 5 trips on my spool and absolutely no problems so far. No fish break offs and no spool issues or evident line twisting. I went tonight and caught 4 different species on it with the TM, all were respectable representatives of their kind, and all caught in 3ft water or less from the bank. Since you posted a Trout caught on the line, here are 5 different species caught on the Varivas Twitch Master from my last two trips.

I bet Yodie or VaCrappie dude has some Twitch line pictures they could add here as well. Great line, glad you like it.
I may have some pics around here somewhere haha... good stuff it is... I am using it exclusively on my cast and retrieve set ups and I have been really impressed. I think I have ordered 17 spools of it now all in the 3lb... good stuff and glad you like it!
I wonder how the Varivas flouro lines are? I am currently in love with 3 lb Sunline FC Sniper, though it is getting mighty hard to see the older I get! I love the speed of sink and the low stretch, and while a tad bit stiff, it isn't as bad in handling as, say, the polyester line. Do you suppose this line is less or more stretch than pure flouro? I also like the 4 lb K9 hi-viz flouro, it is my go-to dock-shooting line, but someone claimed it is a copolymer and not true flouro, and it's about as fat a line as I can go on my UL gear.
The varivas twitch master is a very manageable and supple line. I enjoy its low stretch and imagine it would be similar to fluorocarbon in the stretch category.
All right, then. I'll toss a spool or two in the cart.
:cheers2
Thanks for the reviews guys. Sounds like very nice line.

PS Those are beautiful looking fish, Stan. They were pretty close to the bank.

I was holding some 3 lb Twitch Master in my hand last night, trying to decide what reel to put it on... I’m going to try it out on my new 21 Luvias Airity. Thanks for the reviews and endorsements!

Hey Randy if you would care to put this 3lb Nylon on the Drag Checker and test it’s breaking strength I would appreciate it. I guess you guys are flooded out down there as we are up here and I know that water is all headed that way eventually. I cannot remember if your device goes over 3-4 pounds but if it does I am curious as to it’s true breaking strength. Thanks a bunch for the advice and guidance on these JDM products.
