    I believe Nano fill is no longer made anything close to this for comparability and easy to find? Walmart, Runnings store. I usually use 8 pound test for panfish and wacky rigging for bass on spinning gear it has worked great

    Ultra carrier 8. Abrasion resistance of fireline with the smooth casting of nanofil. I like it but i couldnt find it in a high vis color.

    Fireline Ultra 8 in 6lb will be stronger than the Nanofil in 8lb.

    Ultra 8 is much more abrasion resistant than Nanofil.

    would that still be strong enough for my bass application if so awesome I really loved Nano fill just the knots to floro for a leader was a pain sometimes. Thanks for all the help all.

    The original Fireline is stronger than its test rating. Braids as a rule are also stronger than their test rating. As RT wrote, 6-lb test Fireline Ultra 8 would likely be stronger than Nanofil 6-lb. But I doubt that tying a fluoro leader would be any easier. You might want to step up to 8- or 10-lb for that issue.

    I’m really surprised that tying to fluoro is a problem. For me, it’s the only way I could get a reliable knot.

    Nanofil is available at Cabela’s, Dick’s Sports and Wal-Mart and several online e-tailers.
