JB Line one hollow braid
Has anyone noticed a difference in the 130 JB blue braid from say the white. It seems to be harder getting a needle in it and is not as smooth. The weave does not seem to relax like the white. Is it me? Is there something different i should be doing.. Is it just the nature of the dyed blue spectra and it is what it is..

I love the white and am dedicated and loyal to the use of it. However I hate the blue and will not be ordering any more.
I found everything you said to be true. I was hoping the blue worked, because the white stands out like a beacon for jigging windons. When I make a windon with the white, i have to color it with a black sharpie to tone it down a little. White JB rules.

To add color , they add wax .The wax makes it harder to splice and the weave will not relax as much
