Is Trilene sensation a copolymer line? It says multi-polymer on it but some sites say its a monofilament.

Also, for anyone who has used it, what are your opinions?

Thanks guys!

Its a mono filament line and I have used it and it is a pretty good line, but for the price there are a lot better lines available.

It's an interesting line worthy of consideration because of its low stretch qualities. To give you an idea, here's some comparison test data I generated on various brands and types of 6# line.

Very, very interesting. Thank you!

sensation is a copolymer line.it is made of 2 different nylon blends which makes it a copolymer.all lines including fluoro are actually monofiliment lines.mono means one filament or strand.in fishing monofilament generally refers to single blend nylon lines.flouro coated lines are hybrids and are mistakenly refered to as copolymers sometimes.copolymers existed before fluro coated mono came out.

i used sensation for 2 years and liked it.it is a very sensative mono.i have heard of guys having line breakage issues with it but i never had that happen when i was using it.

I never had breakage problems using it, but it seemed to have a lot of memory. If it wasn't for KVD line conditioner, I probably wouldn't use it.

"NEW! MULTI-POLYMER FORMULA gives Sensation EXTREME SENSITIVITY, STRENGTH, and CONTROL. Ultrasensitive and ultra strong, Sensation is abrasion-resistant and easy to cast. Small baits cast more easily, crankbaits go deeper, and spinnerbaits run truer. Sensation gives you total control over your presentation, from cast to hook set."

This is how Berkley promoted this line. a muti-polymer. Anyway, as was said, it is a mono (one) filament (strand) line as are all copolymers.

I really like Sensation. It is sensitive, low stretch compared to other monos. My favorite, actually. If one is used to Trilene XL or a similar line, Sensation will not be as manageable. But it doesn't have terrible memory. I have heard of some having line breakage, but I never have. I do change out line more often than some, though. Its low stretch might be a problem for some who set hard with a snap on slack line.

I don't use it as much as I used to because I now use more fluorocarbon in its place. I am going back to it on some spinning reels this year.

Berkley Sensation has always been an outstanding line.

Several years back I remember reading that a Berkley Rep

allegedly stated that based on Berkley in-house testing,

"Sensation" was Berkley's best polymeric line.

================================================

Technically, the terms "copolymer" and "multipolymer" are interchangeable,

however 'copolymer' normally refers to 2 polymers,

whereas 'multipolymer' normally refers to 3 or more polymers.

Fluorocarbon is monofilament line and is also a polymer. Therefore,

blends of different nylons as well as blends of nylon and fluorocarbon

are all "copolymer" lines. Most copolymer lines are monofilament,

but some are cofilament.

Do you have anything on Sufix Elite ?
