Shakes Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 I have used Power Pro 50# test braid for the past year or so. Don't know any others anymore. What do you prefer? Quote
Fish Man Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 8# sufix seige ...hoping to try 6# this coming spring Quote
skillet Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 Don't want to hear no durned giggling in the background ;D! I have been fishing the same name brand (Stren 8 and 12 lb.) mono for so many years, I feel like I know how it is going to act in almost any given situation... As Ever, Skillet Quote
mdangler Posted March 19, 2007 Posted March 19, 2007 Berkley XT, Berkley Vanish, and Berkley Fireline. I have used other lines, but there is something about Berkley that keeps it on my reels. Been using it for as long as i can remember and cant picture using any thing else exclusively. Quote
Super User MALTESE FALCON Posted March 19, 2007 Super User Posted March 19, 2007 Well, for the last twenty years I've used Trilene XL. I've tried other lines, but I always come back to good old XL. I haven't found anything I like as much. Falcon Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted March 19, 2007 Super User Posted March 19, 2007 Favorites, Stren Super Braid in 20# and 30#, Stealth in 50#, Original Spiderwire in 30# and 60#, Stren Magnathin in 12# and 16#, XPS Fluorocarbon in 14# and 20#, McCoys Mean Green in 6# and 8#, Fireline in 14#. Quote

Super User Maxximus Redneckus Posted March 19, 2007 Super User Posted March 19, 2007 Don't want to hear no durned giggling in the background ;D! I have been fishing the same name brand (Stren 8 and 12 lb.) mono for so many years, I feel like I know how it is going to act in almost any given situation...Thats the key you also feel confident using it.if it is workin and u have had no probs with it is what its all about... As Ever, Skillet Quote
Super User FishTank Posted March 19, 2007 Super User Posted March 19, 2007 My favorites are 50lb PowerPro and P-line Floroclear 10lb or maybe Evolution 10lb. The new evolution line has done a great job so far. Quote
Bass1 Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 Like Roadwarrior (and several others in this forum), I like Yo-zuri Hybrid Ultra Soft and have it on 3 out of my 4 BC reels. I tried the Tectan Premium Plus mono last weekend (for my deep-diving crankbait set-up) and it seems to be a good line also, although I should fish it several times more for an accurate evaluation.

Super User fourbizz Posted March 20, 2007 Super User Posted March 20, 2007 If I had to be stuck with only one line it would be either P-Line CX Premium, or P-Line Evolution. Quote
Ben Lipiec Posted March 20, 2007 Posted March 20, 2007 just wondering... how many of you guys have tried Gamma and if you have did not like it? In my opinion it is the bes line out there(i dont get payed a penny to say that). I work at Gander Mountain and i have tried every line on our wall and nothing even comes close to the breaking strength, suppleness, and sensativity of gamma line. and even though gamma's breaking strength is nearly double its diameter size it is the same diameter as all of the berkley lines. thanks, ben Quote
Live.2.Fish Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 Used power pro the last two years, but this year I'm using Yo-Zuri Hybrid Ultra Soft this year. I guess I have to find out what everyone has been talking up so much. Quote
Cephkiller Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 If you go with braid, I have used Spiderwire, Fireline, Stren Superbraid and Powerpro and I like the Stren best by far. I haven't tried Suffix yet, but I have heard good things about it. Quote
M_Fields. Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 I like P-Line, and I have heard alot of good things about the Gamma Line. Far as a braided line, I like the Suffix. Quote
bighed Posted March 21, 2007 Posted March 21, 2007 I'm trying the Gamma copolymer now too Ben. I'm on about my sixth spool of 12 and 14 lb test. I like the strength but not as much as the P line I was using. I like the low memory, I like the abrasion resistance, I like the price/rebate thing they have on now. $7.88 a roll at my local Academy and buy two get one free coupon to boot. Quote
