Title: Qns: Jerry Brown Multi Colour
Post by: Nuvole on February 22, 2015, 02:54:04 PM
Before I invest yet another line counter, did anyone have clue of what is the color coding sequence?
The color of my old spool of 60lb on the reel bleed, and most part of the line are red/brown/purplish...
Only black and blue are clearly visible. ???

According to Mellon Tackle it changes color every 10 yds.

There must be a sequence for their color coding...

I had a spool of the first run of JB Decade multi color line and did not like it at all and I am a big JB fan. The colors faded quickly and the dye would bleed onto your hands and the other colors. Also there were too many colors to keep up with. The Tufline Indicator, IMO is a much better product.

I've purchase a few spool last year, now facing exactly the same issue:-(

Start with a new spool of 60lb today. The color sequence coming out from the spool is at follow:-

Red > Purple > Black > Yellow > Light Purple > Green > Dark Brown > Pink > Orange > Blue
Then a short length of Black before going to Red again.
