Excuse my tardy response. I haven't been checking this board for a while.
Most of my fishing is stream fishing for trout.
For ultralight, I use 2# Ande blue. Because of my aging eyesight, I'm switching to Ande's fluorescent yellow 2# for bait and staying with the blue for lures.
On medium to large sized streams I've switched from Ande's 4# blue to Cabela's 4# No-Vis Fluorocarbon for lures and their 4# Vivid Fluorocarbon with 4# No-Vis Fluorocarbon leader for bait.
On big canyon rivers, I've switched from 8# Stren Magnathin to 8# Cabela's No-Vis Fluorocarbon for lures and their 8# Vivid Fluorocarbon with 6# No-Vis leader for bait.
Through all my experimenting, even though I keep cautioning myself on the accuracies of old memories. I still cherish my experiences with the strength, diameter, and limpness (is that a word?) -- at least in 2 and 4# -- of Garcia's Platyl before it was discontinued.
