Fishing line rant

Recommended Posts

I went to buy a couple 1000 yard spools of AbrazX and its around $130! since when was a 200 yard spool of it or even sunline sniper 25-30 bucks?? Its getting ridiculous! I have a hard time spending 200 on a rod and then putting cheap line on but how can they expect us to pay this much when the line really only lasts one season?!? Im not too sure what Im going to spool up on my reels this year.

Wow, that is alot. Red label is $10.50 for 200yds al Wally world. Maybe that is why I use Stren High Impact on half of my rods. 860yds of 15lb line for about 6 bucks. 10lb gets you over 1000yds. I'd get shot if I spent that much on line!! Vent away though.

haha thanks... even red label online is 15-20 bucks! I just have a hard time trying other lines because I know how big of an impact line can be. Its a good thing Im young and single with money to spend but I don't think Ill be fishing that stuff. that stren line sounds tempting for this year. I don't get how two years ago you could buy a spool of AbrazX for 125 bucks and now its double!

I agree with BF24, googled several places online that had it for 70-80 bucks, depending on the test. The Stren line is just mono, pretty much like Big game. I use it for spinnerbaits, cranks and jigs sometimes. I have a grad party to pay for this year, so I may even have to switch to the Eagle Claw stuff!! Ok, I'm not even that cheap.:lol:
