Looks just like cable. Cortland Musky Master is the best choice and comes in black. If you need it to be silver get the clear braided line and die it silver with some RIT dye that can be purchased at most grocery stores. RIT dye will change the color of any type of clear plastic if left long enough in the solution. Hope this helps... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mountaindewd Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 Go to Walmart, in the craft section, you can find actual steel cable which scales to about a 1/2 inch. It is with the beads and bracelet stuff and comes in 15 ft pieces. Les Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
