Line Lubricant

[Fisher_C]

Hey everyone. I was wondering how everyone lubricates there flourocarbon lines? I was also wondering if there were any other products you can use such as stuff around the house? Would reel butter work well as a lubricant? Thanks ahead of time.

Good Question.. I was wondering what was the difference between reel magic and kvd L&L??

KVD L&L is all I use.  I do not like Reel Magic at all.

 

Here is a link to a thread comparing the 2: KVD L&L vs Reel Magic

I use KVD Line & Lure, I spray it on as I spool the reel and try to remember to spray it on before I leave the house to go fishing. I also use it on the guides of the rod. It's also great for cleaning the screen on your graph. I use it on my glasses and sun glasses too.

 

From what I understand KVD L&L doesn't contain any petroleum products where reel majic does.

KVD L&L for all my lines

Definitely throwing my reel magic away after reading that the info from that link!

I haven't used it since the day I purchased it.. I put it on some mono.. Set the hook on what was maybe a 2lb fish and snapped...so I tried to break it in differnt places and 12# test broke soo easy on both the reels I had it on, and it was new line ...

To say I been basically boycotting Walmart because I thought it must have been line that been siting on the shelf for years!! Being a fishing pack rat I still have the box, and just went try to break it by hand and could not!!

The only thing it could be is reel magic!! I even changed brand of mono because of that incident lol

I don't understand Wat the point of line conditioner is? Isn't it better to just buy a more expensive, better quality line, than to buy a less expensive one and have to treat it.
