Line Color

[Guest]

We are making our first trip to Lake Vermilion next week and I need to get new line on the reels. Can anyone give me some advice on what line color works best with the water color of Lake Vermilion. I usally use green or blue Stren. Thanks for the help.

I use Trilene XT green color, more for the abrasion sesistance than the color itself. Lots of rocks and boulders to drag a line across. Most of my homemade spinners are white Trilene XL. My personal belief is that line color is not a factor. Someone once wrote that if the walleyes can see the line, then why do they get caught in nets. Stands to reason.

Good luck,

Rob

Thanks for the insight. Getting very excited about comming up to the Big V as you all call it.

Hey Guys,
I use green or clear on my walleye rigs
and there is no difference in action.
I use smoke on my casting rods but also use clear mono, again no difference.

I think Roberts comment about the nets said it all. Especially in the dark waters of the Big V. I have several of my clients that like to use High Vision
lines. They have no problems catching a
smallie on a tube, even with the bright
line.

Hi Rob,
I use smoke Fire Line on all of my rods and green Trilene XL 10# test on all of my leaders and spinners.
