jignfule Posted September 3, 2011 Posted September 3, 2011 I just tried the 12# test out yesterday, fished a 1/8 oz grub most of the day and so far I really am impressed. No problem with the double polmar (nanofil)knot,little if any line memory,great sensitivity, no spooling problems that some say they experienced. Fished most of the day in stiff wind and had zero wind knots. Was using light spinning tackle, but casting distance was not as impressive as I expected. The only thing I was concerned about was the white color of the line and unlike braid it wouldn't darken with magic marker. It was only my initial experience and it was pretty limited. I will of course learn more as I keep fishing it, but I will keep using it and am glad I tried it out. Quote
Super User slonezp Posted September 3, 2011 Super User Posted September 3, 2011 The other "review" thread has a couple reviews and a bunch of static. I spooled up some today for a Door County trip that's in the near future. My main reason for making the purchase is the hope it won't be destroyed by zebra mussels. They tear apart flouro causing one to retie constantly. I'll let you know in a couple weeks. Quote
Super User QUAKEnSHAKE Posted September 3, 2011 Super User Posted September 3, 2011 The other "review" thread has a couple reviews and a bunch of static.

They tear apart flouro causing one to retie constantly. I'll let you know in a couple weeks. Ive used #6 for a few weeks dont fish near mussels but can tell you catching just 3-4 12"-14" bass will cause the line to fray noticeably so re-tie is necessary. Ive noticed too that the lighter the lure/bait the better difference between this and braid in distance. Example like one inch piece of worm will go much further with Nano than 10/2 powerpro. But throwing a 1/8oz Bitsy Minnow about the same around 60' and throwing 5" Senko my distances are about the same. Another thing I have noticed is the drag on the guides reeling underpressure seems to be more apparent. It just seems to require more effort at times to reel in same size fish compared to PP. Line is growing on me though the more I use it. At first I thought I waisted my money but now its more like another "tool" for very light stuff. Here I have a little more info and here Quote
