Mccallister25 Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 There's not a lot of detail to go into this question, so Im just gonna keep it simple. Is there a certain brand of monofilament line yall prefer that has the lowest memory? Quote
plumworm Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 Trilene XL on spinning tackle and XT on bait casting. Also take a good look at P-line cxx. Great strength to diameter. 1 Quote
Todd2 Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 McCoy...strong and very low memory. It's on all of mine except for one braid setup. 1 Quote
robster80 Posted May 11, 2014 Posted May 11, 2014 im with todd. all i use is mccoy cept my one braid setup Quote
Mccallister25 Posted May 11, 2014 Author Posted May 11, 2014 Thanks guys. Iv heard some bad things about the McCoy fluoro, so I may do some research on the mono. Quote
Global Moderator Mike L Posted May 11, 2014 Global Moderator Posted May 11, 2014 If I ever use mono again it will be Big Game. Never had a problem of any kind with it, including memory. Mike Quote
SwampLife Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Tried most monofilaments and I keep going back to stren.. Haven't tried McCoy or sunline though Quote
Super User new2BC4bass Posted May 12, 2014 Super User Posted May 12, 2014 I'm a long ways from having tried every mono out there. Personally I find Big Game to have more memory than Trilene XL, Sunline Super Natural or Sufix Elite. However, it does well after making a few casts to stretch it and get it wet. I use Big Game in 8# and 12#. I'd have to say the Elite is currently my favorite of the softer monos, but want to try McCoy and a couple others. I'm using Red Cast on a couple reels (got it at a good discount), and far as I remember, it hasn't had much memory after setting awhile either. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted May 12, 2014 Super User Posted May 12, 2014 Original Stren. Has a bit more memory than Trilene XL but it is a lot more durable. Some KVD L and L makes it a great limp mono. Quote
Super User iceintheveins Posted May 12, 2014 Super User Posted May 12, 2014 Suffix Elite is good too. Quote
Super User Deleted account Posted May 12, 2014 Super User Posted May 12, 2014 Big game on BCs, XL on spinning, it ain't broke, so I ain't fixing it. Every so often I try the latest "in" line, and always go back. 1 Quote
Super User Maxximus Redneckus Posted May 12, 2014 Super User Posted May 12, 2014 All i use is big game and yo zuri Quote
RipSomeLips Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 Whatever you decide to use please treat yourself to some KVD line and lure conditioner, it is a big help with line memory. Seriously, it's amazing. Quote
Hyrule Bass Posted May 12, 2014 Posted May 12, 2014 sufix siege, before that i used trilene xl, also use big game or original stren on some reels... Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted May 12, 2014 Super User Posted May 12, 2014 sunline super natural, great mono This is my choice, too! Quote
