Berkley X9 Line Product Review
Over the past few days of fishing in 2024, I had the chance to test Berkley’s new X9 braid in multiple situations. I was particularly impressed with the X9 Lo Vis Green braid in both 10lb and 20lb lines. These low-diameter and low-visibility braids were a perfect fit for the crystal-clear water conditions brought by the recent cold weather. The thin diameter also proved advantageous, helping to better conceal the line in the clear winter water.
