This is too funny...

I had never fished the braid or the RX Spinning, mostly because it's hard to come by and I didn't know until recently that you could buy it direct off their site. So when I put in my order I asked for a spool of each, just to check out and because I thought people might ask about those lines. Sure enough, Todd asks about the braid and you ask about the RX spinning. Darn wiseguys!

Aright - the RX spinning I got a filler spool of 6lb. It looks like about 4lb test, maybe thinner even. I actually double checked the label on it when I saw how thin it was to see if it was actually 6lb test. I'm skeptical of any line that looks way smaller diameter than it should be, but we'll see how it works!

Another thing I was stoked to see on their site was the 2lb camo-escent filler spool. This was the line that originally got me hooked on Triple Fish because it was the only 2lb test I could find that didn't break rediculously easy. When I go trout fishing this summer in the Sierras, it's going to be a massacre on the planter trout with that stuff :9 hehe.

Woodsac - as far as washing out by the knot, that's what I'm most annoyed by. The line that is in the fish's field of vision is the line closest to the knot. If it's white, that just can't be good IMO. I tried the trick of coloring the line with a magic marker, but then I hear that can weaken the line ... so it's kind of like shoot, after a while of dealing with all these hangups with braid I just want to go back to what I know and trust. In the last month I landed a 6lber on 25lb triple fish camo that had me completely wrapped around a rock and a 7lber on 20lb that had me in some tree branches when I hooked it. When I hook those kind of fish I don't want to get all paranoid about avoiding rocks or setting the hook too hard or having the line weakened by magic marker or whatever else. I just want to slam the hookset and get the fish in.
