- Fluorocarbon Line - Fishing Line Visibility Test. Which Fishing Line is Best for Bass. Different Brands
I took 6 Diffent Fishing Line Fluorocarbon Brands and did an Underwater Visibility Test to see which Line outperformed the others. This was a good test to see if cheaper Brands could be just as good as the more expensive fishing lines. The ranges of pricing was very different from the cheap Walmart Fluorocarbon to the more expensive fluorocarbon lines found at Academy Sports. I was quite surprised at how well these 10 pound fishing lines looked in this Crystal Clear Water. Let me know if this video helped you gain some knowledge and insight into Fluorocarbon fishing line.

Thank you, this helped in going to pick out a fluorocarbon line. Going with the Vanish. By the way, concerning some of the comments, you came across just fine, not boring but enthusiastic. You take the talent God gives and keep using it. :) Thank you for a job well done.
Thank you Howard I really appreciate that. I don't know any other way than to be me. I'm glad I could help bud
It seemed to vary with all of them depending on the angle of the light and the background. Well designed test that answered some questions that I had. Thanks for taking the time to share it.
Your welcome Steve, I'm the same way I think its very interesting how the background and the amount of light changes the way the line is visible. Thabks bud
Great video project Derrick it took my old eyeballs a minute or so to dial in but I seen what I needed. Thanks Derrick 👍🏾
Your welcome bud. I’m glad I could help
Great video, thank you. I'd like to see maybe 2 of each the best fluoro, mono and braids all side by side in the same test as well. Then we can ascertain the braid visibility compared to all others as I thought about running all braid in the conditions that I see in Lake Fork, Ray Roberts, Lewisville etc... they are usually dingy compared to the CRYSTAL clear water in the video and have a better idea of what I should use.
I do appreciate the unbiased test though!
That is an awesome idea david. I would love to see the difference between all of those lines underwater. I'm gonna have to do that one. Thanks bud
Overall I think Vanish was the least visible. But I would suggest in post production labeling the lines since we are looking at them in reverse and tracking them can get difficult. I had to watch a few times.
Yeah, your right it can get confusing. I'm gonna make it more understandable on my next one mono vs fluoro. I thought the same thing and I'm seeing alot of people are picking the vanish as well.
Lmao !! I can’t see any of them at all hahaha 😂
Ha, yeah I did a recent one with ultralight line, braid, and mono. You almost can't see the fluorocarbon in that one either.
Bro
All that work🤙here’s an idea put numbers on each in camera frame/(masking tape or) will make line move in light and be able to identify…and put in description. People still have to watch to see.
Also, if possible turn lines up to light thru shadows and light. Also, see if you place camera farther from lines if it changes viewing. Fish will be a greater distance from line a lot as well with some lures.
Could do a mix vid with braid to Fluoro tests but then your variations will be countless.
However, just to see same color braid or any combo you think would be clever.
🌵🧀🎣
✌️🍀
That’s a great idea. Thanks bud
I had great luck with yozuri hybrid and daiwa samurai fluoro as main line and Berkeley Vanish as leader. 4 lbs
I haven’t used the other 2 lines but I’m a big fan of the Berkeley vanish.
Which line do you guys think performed the best?
I need this. I sight finesse fishing for rainbow trout in crystal clear Oregon water. I don’t like fishing in dirty water at all.
I fish a ton of clear water and sometimes it’s tough fishing dirty water. It takes a little bit to get used to it again when fish can see a bait from so far in clear
That looks so nice like an aquarium
Yea sir, some of the clearest water in texas. Love that place.
@@TBassFactory where is that? I know there is a river out toward big bend, but I remember something in the hill country too, Thanks for the video, miss that area, in Utah now.
You should run the test with mono along these side by side so we can see the difference?
That's a good idea. I was wanting to do that test and see how it comes out. Thanks john
Have you tried testing moving the outside lines to the inside to see if camera angle effects the visibility?
I didnt, but my main objective was to see if the different angles of light would refract and allow the line to become more visible.
@@TBassFactory The central lines proximity to the camera may be a factor.
So the first question I have is: Do fish see light in the same spectrum as humans? Because if they don't, this test may not mean much, though I appreciate your effort. :)
Yeah I was in search of that same question. I read articles on the science behind what bass see and every article found they see the same as humans, but they also can see in the ultraviolet spectrum. Thanks bud
@@TBassFactory So your video got me doing some research of my own, and I agree with your findings for the most part. Thanks for getting me off my butt and for doing a great video. :)

@@visualvapor ha, makes me feel a little better someone agrees on that. I think the sight things has been debated for quite awhile amongst fisherman.
Some of the more expsives ones are a tad more clear but when u put some of them on a rod and reel they don't operate near as good imo. Go with what works for you they all are clear .
💯 exactly. Its all about preferences but its good to know what they actually look like underwater. That is what I was curious about with all of the lines. Thanks bud
@@TBassFactory if you ever do this again try the vicious elite series compared to red label and those good brands 👍 very good video man
I wonder if its the same with the line being a little loose would make any difference, and maybe put a little piece of some thing visible so we know where to look for what we don't see lol
Good idea or flagging to help of the line is unseeable to make the line visible.
this guys so damn excited he can't hardly contain himself....
Ha, yeah to say I'm passionate is an understatement
@@TBassFactory
I get the impression you have to pee so bad you can't wait, everytime you're explaining something.
amazing work!
Thank ya, I appreciate it Brandon
Wish you would have put one Mono in there.
Yeah I wish I would of. I need to make this one again
@@TBassFactory
I for one believe depending on the background I doubt you will see very little difference against Sufix Advance Mono.
I use to try and buy the latest and Greatest lines and with fishing with friends who did not it did not make a bit of difference.
You got a sub for this. God bless
Thank you I appreciate that bud
Awesome vid
Thanks cameron
How does yo zuri hybrid compare to fluorocarbon for visibility? Thx
It’s pretty good. Not as good as 100% fluoro with visibility but has great casting ability and strength. It’s a copolymer with nylon and fluoro which gives more strength and gives up a little of the visibility.
Hi, can we use berkley vanish line over mono line for more stealthy approach?
You sure can. I woulduse what you have confidence in.
@@TBassFactory 👍👍👍
Thank you so much......
I could hardly see any of them. I would buy on the basis of price, handling, durability and knot strength.
You have got that down to the basics which is awesome. That is all you need to get a good line you have confidence in.
You took the words out of my mouth jim
I've watched the bass spot it so yeah and I never caught it...I down graded to 10lb Silver thread flourocarbon and it was on them lol
Yep sometimes not
Only can it help be invisible but be a confidence thing if you have witnessed them see your line and turn away
The device you made was slick.. what I call roughneck ingenuity 👍🎣💯
Berkeley vanish looked the best to me
I have had good luck with the vanish. I would have to agree it looked really good.
Hi, is fluorocarbon the most invisible than mono, nylon and braid lines?
Yes fluorocarbon is by far the most invisible but it does sink so if your fish with bottom baits it will be best.
@@TBassFactory Thank you so much......
I don't think you said what Lb test the lines are
They were all 10 pound lines.
@@TBassFactory thanks
IMO #6 seems to be the least visible. Is this Landa Park?
I would have to agree that is a good one. It sure is right by the gazebo, good call.
Solution: fish that dirty water 😆 jk, great video.
Ha, yep thats exactly right and then no worries. Thanks bud
Mono line best or flurocrbon line best for fishing ?
I would say mono is better. It is also cheaper, fluorocarbon can get expensive
@@TBassFactory thank you.
As far as which was the best, you said Seaguar, CastKing, but others said Berkley, problem is you agreed with all your responses, why? to make people watch your videos more? I don't want a yes man, I want to know which one EXACTLY did YOU like? If you had to pick just one between Seaguar, CastKing or Berkeley which one would you chose? And don't worry about offending anyone elses choice, it is after all just an opinion.
Exactly right your opinion is your opinion. If you feel a certain way then ok that’s cool. I know what I like and you got that. All of these lines are good it’s a matter of opinion. Don’t be so uptight about line visibility.
@@TBassFactory If I shouldn't get uptight about line visibility then why did you do the test? Why not just use any line without consideration of visibility or lack there of?
Because I had fun doing an underwater experiment with fishing line. Thanks bud
@@TBassFactory LMAO!!
Well shit, apparently I'm blind as a bat..😂😂😂
Can you do a comparison with flourocarbon verses mono please?
That is a great idea David. Thanks bud
@@TBassFactory I use mono heaps Schneider clear it has a slight green tint with great results... visibility has always been In the back of my mind..I do use flourocarbon at times... Schneider has better abrasion resistance in my opinion
bass pro excel flouro is among the strongest, NO I AM NOT AFFILIATED WITH THEM, JOHNNY MORRIS DOESNT SEND ME MONEY, THE CHEAPSKATE COULD HE WOULDNT MISS IT !
I don’t use fluoride very often anymore. That stuff is so expensive and I haven’t noticed I get less bites using mono or braid but in some cases i believe it does help in that ultra clear water.
Berkley vanish is the best.. very invisible..
It is some good stuff.
Seagar
Yeah seaguar is good stuff
THE SHINE, LOSE THAT AND IT WOULD BE MUCH BETTER LINE
Yep. Your right. I don’t like that light shine either. Of it hits just the right angle could spook the fish.
Sir, Why are you yelling?
Ha, I’m excited!
@@TBassFactory good you should be!
ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ
Ha, yep not for everybody
@@TBassFactory I was hopping to cast a line and bust some fish up. I’m subscribing 😊
Happy Thanksgiving. It would be easier to listen to your vid if you stopped yelling when you talk, please.
Happy Thanksgiving. Sorry, I get very excited about experiments. Thanks bud
