Obe Posted December 20, 2012 Share Posted December 20, 2012 Looking to respool my reels and need some advice on what kind of line to get. I am looking for 6 and 2 pound test. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TyGuy02 Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I'm a bit of a line snob, tried just about everything for every sort of style of fishing. Last year I really liked P line fluoroclear. I used the 2 lb and 6 lb on my various rods. I also did a jigging rod with the berkley micro-ice braid and I really like that too. Tying jigs on with this feels like tying hair since it's 1 lb diameter, but it's very strong Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

that_guy Posted December 21, 2012 Share Posted December 21, 2012 I re spooled just the other day. I used a fluoro in 6lb and I can already tell it's going in the trash after the first trip. I didnt' care for it. Off the spool it had memory, and it felt like it was already twisted or rough when I slid it through my fingers. In fact, I may grab new line today. I also picked up some viscious (sp)in 3lb Copolymer line I think. That stuff was extremely easy to tie, felt good in my hand, and held knots very well. I'm anxious to try it out! This line is also the first line I've ever taken off the spool that didn't instantly want to coil to a pretty obnoxious degree. Wow, worst technical review ever...glad I got that over with.

TyGuy02 Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 that_guy, what kind of fluoro was it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Maina Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 Personally, I like to go with a main-line that is a no stretch for better feel and handling; these days on all rods (trout, walleye, panfish ...) The Nanofill has been working great. From there a fluoro leader for a little rubber band effect and of course visibility. For pannies the Trilene ICE 100% Fluoro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Parsons Posted December 22, 2012 Share Posted December 22, 2012 I'll second Pete on the Nano...like the new green color...same, flour leader. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
