No I see no need to use it, I only use quality mono, and pure fluorocarbon leader.

I love fishing. You put that line in the water and you don't know what's on the other end. Your imagination is under there. -Robert Altman

I have used red line, Fluorocarbon, clear mono, gold, no stretch, probably every line out there, and I have come to this conclusion, It doesnt matter. Now I use Berkley Trilene micro ice the least expensive line I can find, and put just as many fish on the ice.

Hate red line in any form.  It's brittle in cold, and has terrible memory.  The only "red" line that I've used with any success is Amnesia.
I've narrowed my lines to three:
Berkley Micro Ice in 2+4 in steel.
Suffix Ice Magic in 1+2 in Clear
Fireline Micro Ice 1+2 in Crystal

I've had terrible luck with red lines and won't even again use them.  fish on camera would hit the line, not the jig.  They'd then move to the next jig and eat it.
