NorthFloBassin Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Any line suggestions? I've gone through many brands of line and I can't seem to find the right one. Spider wire is my braid choice but for mono in floro I can't decide. All I know is Sufix has worked the best and sunline,Triline,high-catch and power pro suck. What's the strongest floro and mono out there? Quote
Super User Tywithay Posted June 9, 2014 Super User Posted June 9, 2014 Strongest fluoro is Sunline Shooter, by far. Strongest mono I've used is Sunline Defier Armilo, but you have to pay attention to diameters. Quote
NorthFloBassin Posted June 9, 2014 Author Posted June 9, 2014 I don't know why but the sun line doesn't seem to be that strong to me I broke 16 lb test with my hands.....rotten line I'm guessing? Quote
Super User Tywithay Posted June 9, 2014 Super User Posted June 9, 2014 Rotten line, or if it snapped near the knot you may have burnt the line. If the knot is not wet well before clinching it, it can greatly weaken the line; especially fluorocarbon. Quote
JaxBasser Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 I've never had any problems with sunline breaking. I've used the Super FC and the Sniper. Both have been pretty strong. The BPS XPS floro has also held up really well for me. Quote

I use improved clinch for braid and my mono but I don't know what's good for floro and I rely need to find a new one for braid Quote
Super User F14A-B Posted June 9, 2014 Super User Posted June 9, 2014 Maybe you should try Yozuri hybrid? It's crazy strong... But trilene big game is too... Or Pline CXX... Of course it won't have the feel of Tatsu or invisx... But way strong, and good enough on feel, at least for me.. Palomar spit soaked knot.. No troubles... 1 Quote
Super User Catch and Grease Posted June 9, 2014 Super User Posted June 9, 2014 Power pro super 8 slick = my favorite braid Quote
STPC Posted June 9, 2014 Posted June 9, 2014 Palomar knot for any braided lines - easy to tie on the fly and is incredibly strong. Quote
