Check back with Gander after the 28th of this month if you can wait that long.
Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an  well-preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, A fishing pole in one hand, beer in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming \"WOO HOO, what a ride!

Just out of curiousity, IFF, why do you use it?  I fell in love with Trilene Hi- Vis for open water a few yrs ago, respooled all my bass/pickerel reels with it.  I could always see where I was casting or trolling.  The following year it was (and still remains) impossible to find.  Guess I was the only one who liked it. It was very bright chartreuse in color.

   What advantage does hi-vis have on ice?

The hi-vis line is used a lot by tightliners since they can see it easily. It is easy to see small movements in the line when a fish just sucks it in without moving.

Mark, our Gander Mountain had it in Harrisburg last week. If you want to order it, Bass Pro Shops has it in 4 lb. . Hope this helps.
