Re the generally poor reviews of Berkley Vanish or Vanish Transition: I too have little faith.
I purchased some Vanish Transition in 10 and 12 tests two years ago, attracted by the promise of hi-visibility (above surface) when the line is wet. I spooled it on some Chronarch50MG and 'Rado 100B reels (w/wiffle conversion) and was quite disappointed.
The VT tended to spring off the spool and I experienced a few instances of knot failure; moreso than with Floroclear or my leaders (with braid) made from P-Line's excellent leader material (LEADER! Not fluoro line.)
I have not used any "pure" fluoros, except for the purpose-formulated leader material, since I fish my slow/soft stuff on braid with a fluoro leader. Exception: I do use Floroclear OR the super-tough P-Line CXX for some slow/soft presentations, usually under dingy water/low light conditions.
New fluoro users, (not you,JB. The newbies,) might wish to read my post in the thread linked below, regarding braid/leaders, and pay close attention to just how critical knot-tying is when using any form of fluoro, to include Floroclear, BTW.
