High Visibility Braid is Awesome!!

two questions:
1. does fishing old 'broken in' used-to-be green braid that's now straw yellow count as hi-vis?
2. does hi-vis yellow fade to same straw yellow over time?

and I'm going to hold to and use that 'gay lobster' term.

(take a look at missile D-bomb in PInk Belly)

That would depend on how bad your eyesight was.

I hear you on that one. After my cancer treatment mine got even worse and I have to go get my driver license renewed before the first of next month and hope I can sneak by pass the vision test part of it with just my reading glasses.

I'm sure glad my Hi Viz 50 LB Power pro will be here tomorrow. I just added some more line to my worm rod cause it has needed it for a long time and holy cow I couldn't hardly see the line to tie the two together.

It took me a spell but I get the double uni knot tied and added about 40 yard to it.
