tgafish Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 Getting ready to order a 1500yard spool of PP for some copper and core rods and was wondering if anyone has had more success with one vs another? I have one rod with yellow and several others with green. I'm just wondering if anyone thinks color makes a difference on the cores and copper.btw my yellow rod is my most productive but that may have everything to do with depth and nothing with line color
Priority1 Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I have been running the green Spiderwire.
joelsanders Posted February 24, 2008 Posted February 24, 2008 I just picked up some suffix super braid green/brown in color and i noticed it has a smaller diameter than fireline in the 30lb.test
HitMan Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I don't believe the color makes any difference when using it as backing for Lead Core and Copper. Most of it will never be in the water when trolling; it will be between the boat and the board. The top choices are White or Gray and Green. But, I do believe color makes a difference on diver rods.
Treblemaker Posted February 25, 2008 Posted February 25, 2008 I switched to yellow 40# Power Pro (10 lb diameter) for core and copper last year and I really liked the high vis line to easily see lines behind the boat preventing tangles and to all of the boards.
DangerDan Posted February 26, 2008 Posted February 26, 2008 Same Here. Yeller... Cuz I can see it better.
fishsniffer Posted February 27, 2008 Posted February 27, 2008 i tried the red last year and noticed that by mid season the color was wearing off.apperantly it is died and has to be redied.so i switched back to the green.this was power pro by the way.
Rayman96 Posted March 1, 2008 Posted March 1, 2008 You can put the colour back on your braid by using a permanent marker. In fact power pro talks about this in their literature and on their website.I have recently switched to red power pro. When fishing at night and using a red led headlight, the red power pro appears white and easily seen.
