beza26 Posted April 1, 2013 Report Share Posted April 1, 2013 Does it have to be braid? The lakes I fish are very silty, and I've done really well on ultima power link and IQ when I'm out of power link and waiting on more. I use to use braid and coated braid but have done better on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you like the power link I would stock up on it as ultima have gone into administration Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

emmcee Posted April 13, 2013 Report Share Posted April 13, 2013 if you want to match your braid to a silt bottom then what i do is take a piece of rig putty and pull the material through it a few times quite fast. the friction warms the rig putty which leaves a very thin layer on the braid the length of the rig. you then have coloured braid and it will sit very nicely on the deck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rowleycarper Posted April 14, 2013 Author Report Share Posted April 14, 2013 Thanks for the help I'm suprised that tackle companies don't make supple braids in a silt effect like gravel and weed I found one called ultimate phantom anyone use it ?
