The best fishing line

[wishiwasfishin]

ok i'm in search like most folks on the best fishing line.no memory,fast sinking and low stretch.i do alot of float fishing and floting line really gets me and good lord i hate that line curl...man that makes me mad.

[Ulizth]

As a good all around line I have always liked Berkley Big Game. Hmmm The perfect fishing line . . . Maybe they don't make that yet. I'll stay with big game until I'm convinced there is something better for my money.

It sound like the fishing line for you might be a super line(braided).

They are super strong, no stretch, tuffer than mono, and you can get 20lb line about the diameter of 4lb mono line. Ofcourse this stuff sets you back alot!!!


My favorite mono lines are suffix and berkley big game

well i have never had a braided line that would sink they always seem to float and they have tore up a few of my rod tips.

Never used braided, but for what it counts, here is my opinion on mono:

CAJUN RED!

That stuff is tough as nails, and I love it. Love the red color too. Easy as pie to see above water too, especially during the daytime. And good luck getting off of a snag without a truck and a winch.

I agree with this post, to me you just cant get any better then the cajun red line.I have it on all my reels but one,this stuff is the real deal so cajun red line gets my vote.

[slabmaster]

i like berkley big game . i have cajun red on my channle cat rods right now . it does cast well and i haven't broke a fish off but you cant see the line very well at night by flash light or lantern light. just got the spool of sufix promix 17# i won on this site im going to spool it up on aabu 6000 c and fish with it this saturday . report to follow.

[JAYNC]

I prefer berkley big game myself, have tried many lines but it is very strong and very reasonably priced. You can get a 1lb spool for $23, thats almost 2400yds of 25# test. I personally use 30 and 40lb and its very hard to break off in a snag.

That may be so. Im not sure if its any better with a blacklight or not, but I (personally) dont care too much where the line is at night. Lightning is a little stiffer than the cast, but it doesnt stretch as much, and it is really abrasion resistant.

[slabmaster]

i think the line wishin described is flourcarbon. the sink rate is faster than mono or co polomyer. it doesent stretch as much and a lot of manufacturers are claiming good abrasion resistance.

there ya go i could not think of what it's called.

[wishiwasfishin]

well i have used big game and i don't guess i can say anything bad about it.maybe i should just stick with it.cajun line i have seen in magazines before but i don't know anyone that uses it.ya know come to think of it after all these years i may be getting a twist in my line when i spool up...silly me:o ......what about the p line brand?

[Creek_Chub]

Berkley Big Game and thats my final answer...

I bought a quarter pound spool of the CXX Xtra strong stuff this last winter, and I plan on spooling it up on one of my cat rods. Its fluorescent green (looks more chartreuse) and it looks great. I have heard good stuff about it, and it is supposed to have good abrasion resistance.

[lilgriz]

i have cajun red on all of my reels. i love the stuff! i caught a 55# flat head on 17# cajun red line and i was fishin by a concrete spillway dewy. that flathead ran my line all up and down that concrete dewy and when i finally got him in i ran my fingures down the line and could not find a frey anywhere. that sold me on it right there. it is also easier to cast and so far i havn't had any problem with memory.

[wishiwasfishin]

well i spooled up with some bass pro extreme like 10 bucks for 900 yards.went fishing today and so far so good...I'm thinking i'm liking it but i have not hooked into a big one with it yet..........yet...did i already say yet:)

[canepole]

I like power Pro, you get a good hook set...........

[wolfman]

P-Line is one of the best low memory, low stretch flurocarbon lines out there. But Berkley big game is definately one of the stongest. I also like using Sufix.

[Gator]

Berkley Big Game enough said.

[Catchinbiguns]

Big Cat hands down, IN the solar green.

[RT1]

Power pro is #1

:0a22: I throw it at Salmon, Steelhead, Sturgeon, Catfish, from the Columbia River to the Pacific Ocean. I buy it in spools of 1480yds. Good Stuff!

[kingcat23]

Fireline for braid and Cajun Red for mono

[bmullikin32]

Berkley big game for me nothing else, I use the 25# and I've reeled in a couple of 40 pounders with no problem

[catfishbeatty81]

go with Berkly big game won't be sorry when u pull in a monster on that line.

I have to agree with you about Big Game.I bought it when it first come out and haven't used nothing else since then.I use 30# test and have pulled the boat off anchor with it during a hangup. Thats some strong stuff now.Also caught some big fish with it to.

[mjbarby]

big game all the way, very good, all around line. i use it for cats and b#SS

[Justin]

Power Pro! If I ever find a line thats better i'll change in a heartbeat, but can't seem to find one!:big_smile:

[reel pleasure]

Its all relative,but i recently like to tie on a flurocarbon leader and it seems to be improving my catch rate.The leader is ivisdible underwater!!!

[IL Hunter]

I'm loving the cajun red. you can't beat it IMO.

[trnsmsn]

I've Been Using The Sufix Siege In Smoke Green, Its Easy To Tie Knots With, Virtually No Memory & Abrasion Resistance Is Great. It Works For Me:big_smile: Elliot

[countrycat15]

i love the berkley big game line.but if u want a braided line i would say spiderwire stealth.but i have heard it will cut ur rod guides.

[Abu65]

CAJUN RED!!!! What else can I say?

[photocat]

I use Berkley Big Game... never had a problem with it... i buy the 1 lb spools of the 12#& 15# test and use the 25# test on my big fish rigs... I've never had a fish break my line using it while i fight the fish... Only issue i had ever was one fish on the hook set broke it but that was my fault for not retieing after 5 smaller fish and a couple other larger fish were caught on it... definitely had a weak spot in it from the fights.

Only other line i use is 4# World Wide Sportsmen Camo line for my ultra lights...

I have and have used others but those seem to be the best and well they work to my standards... never had a huge problem with any of them that wasn't my fault...
