Does anyone have a suggestion for some line that is really easy to see when the line is out in the water. I used to use RED DEVIL by HighSeas but it has been discontinued. I miss the bright florescent red stuff. Yellow,green,blue and green do not seem to work for me.

I like the neon tangerine Sufix. Hard to find in stores, but still available online.

I use about a 40 ft. flourocarbon shock leader (60 lb. test) attached to the HiVis line. The bright line is so that I can see where I have casted into the water.

Not sure where you're fishing but I'd shy away from using hi-vis line in the surf, jetties... It's also hi-vis for smacks and other toothy fish which will bite it.

Just my $0.02

Very true. Even clear line shines in the water. I have had many bite offs from SMacks. The line of choice for me is the moss color green (dark green) from Big Game.

Dude... SUFIX TRITANIUM. Trust me. I use it for many different applications. You won't be mad about it.
