Iron Silk, The New Generation?

Featured Replies

My all time favorite line for bottom contact baits was "Ironsilk" I guess very few fisherman agreed with me because it was discontinued about 3-4 years ago. I see that Berkley has brought back a "new and improved" version. Has anyone tried this new Ironsilk? Thanks.

I didn't like the stuff for jigs and stuff because it was green and I fish clear to mildly stained waters more often than not.  I prefer fluorocarbon for that duty.  I thought that the abrasion resistance of that line was outstanding and so I liked it a lot for throwing trap style baits and square bills.  I'm glad they brought it back.

 

It wasn't a bad spinner bait line either.    I found routine treatments with KVD line treatment or the line magic spray worked well to keep it manageable with very few backlashes, and I was often winding up and throwing rattle baits with it as far as I could.  I mostly used 17 and 20 lb test.
