P-Line

I've had great luck with p-line. I use 3lb for crappies and 6lb for walleyes. The 3lb is very strong. My only issue with it is if it gets stressed(breaking off jigs stuck in rocks etc) it won't tie knots very well. Once you strip off the stressed line it ties very strong knots.

Ya I switched over about 5 years ago and won't use anything else. I bought a reel at Vados and they spooled it for free. The guy who put the line on asked what I wanted, I told him what you would use and thats what he put on. After using that reel with P-Line I went back up there and bought 5 spools. That stuff seems to stay good on a reel a lot longer than trilene would. I get a month or two out of it. I was spooling up every two-three weeks with the trilene. (I fish the river a lot and line gets trashed with all the rocks and logs)

I must be the only one that hates pline products, have never used the ice stuff, but had way to many problems with there summer stuff, I have strayed from pline for the last 3 years and have never looked back, use to use there floruo co poly stuff alot then had major breakage issues across the board one year.

I have it on two reels this year. The 2lb seems to break easy, but the 4lb has worked fine. I think that I am going to upgrade the 2 to 4. I switched this year from Berkley Micro Ice just for something new. Never really had any problems with Micro Ice.

Thanks for the input....is it less likely to maintain the coiled memory off the spool compared to mono?

Banks:

Are you having line breakage issues?

Hopefully those issues / excuses will be handled before we take our trip to Idaho next week.......

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
