Super User Spankey Posted July 20, 2020 Super User Posted July 20, 2020 Guys nothing fact based on tinsel strength testing or using a caliper checking published diameters of lines (could do it if necessary). My review is just flat out use on (3) of my set up that are used pretty hard when out. (1) 6’9” ML X-Fast Act. Spinning - Drop Shot, Split Shot, Neds and light T-rigs. SUNLINE 6lb. Super Natural Clear. (1) 6’8” Med. Fast Act. Spinning - Weightless Senko, Neko rigs, 7” Power Worms and weightless trick worms. SUNLINE 8lb. Super Natural Clear. (1) 7’ Med. Moderate Act. Spinning - nothing exceeding 3/8 oz., Shad Raps, DT’s, Bandit, Model A’s, Cottons and Rat-L-Traps. SUNLINE Super Natural 8lb. Super Natural Clear. Line stays limp, no knot problems, not suffering from breaking off problems, line holds up well to abrasion resistance. Seem to be holding up very very well to sunlight and heat. I did see some bad reviews prior to buying. Seen just as many good reviews. I threw the reviews out and was willing to try it. This season so far I like my results with it. Fishing a light line I do realize things could go bad in a hurry. I’m willing to take that chance. * I do not work for SUNLINE, I got no FREEBIES from SUNLINE, no ties to SUNLINE. After years of being a Trilene and Stren user just experimenting and trying to think outside of the box. * I’m using some Sniper Flouro. currently. Not ready to comment fairly on that yet. Also fishing some McCoy copolymer. No real fair comments yet on that either. 1 Quote
Super User FryDog62 Posted July 20, 2020 Super User Posted July 20, 2020 I use Sniper 7 lb for the rod I drop-shot, hair jig and Spybait with. It’s closer to 6 lb diameter of many other line manufacturers and I have had no strength/breakage issues. Closest thing I’ve found to Tatsu but for about half the price. 1 Quote
Super User Spankey Posted July 20, 2020 Author Super User Posted July 20, 2020 I feel so good about my choice and quality that I’ve seen over the last 8 weeks of using It on these three setup that I ordered more. Biggest spools I’ve found were 660 yd. spools though. Wish I could find 1/4 pound or 1200 yd. spools for more cost savings. Ok for now, if I dig I’m sure I can find it. This COVID and economy has fishing tackle and associated products screwed up. I’m not hard up for anything. I have all winter ahead of me to find bulk spools. Quote
Super User Tennessee Boy Posted July 20, 2020 Super User Posted July 20, 2020 I've used Sunline Supernatural a lot. I have no real proof but I'm convinced that it is the same as Stren Magnathin which I have used for decades. I buy whichever one has the best price which is usually Supernatural. It's my go to mono most of the time. It's very manageable as you described. I've gone as high as 16# test on a 4000 spinning reel and it worked well. No way I could do that with Trilene Big Game. I have found abrasion resistance to be an issue compared to other mono and I feel like I need to retie my knots more. When I'm fishing in a place where abrasion is a concern I switch to Big Game. 2 Quote
jbrew73 Posted July 20, 2020 Posted July 20, 2020 Super natural is very manageable and strong but I thought it was lacking sensitivity in typical baitcaster ratings. 14-20 lb sizes. Great line overall but I switched back to old school stren mono. Quote
Super User webertime Posted July 21, 2020 Super User Posted July 21, 2020 My go to Topwater/jerkbait line Quote
FishinBuck07 Posted July 21, 2020 Posted July 21, 2020 I have been very pleased with the Sunline Assassin that I have been using here recently! They make a good product Quote
