Best light-test line
#1
I'm curious what the "masses" consider to be the best light-test mono on the market. The reason behind this is I use ultra-light rigs for crappie and bream when the ocean bite isn't on. I currently use Stren 4lb and am not happy with it at all. When I tie a simple hook, the line snaps. The line is not old, so it's not dry rotted or anything like that, I keep my line changed out. And i'm using quality knotts that hold 99% of the line's tensile strength, so it's not that either. I'm trying to stay away from braid or dacron simply because I don't see spending 14 bucks on 200 yards of line for a bream reel. I remember trying Spider Wire at one point and didn't like it at all. It didn't cast worth a crap. I don't think it was designed for ultra-lite spinning tackle. A soft Braid would probably work best, but i'm not shure. My understanding about braid is that it has a tendacy to twist more than mono does on the ultra-lite spinning reels. I use Berkley Big Game and Ande on my other rigs, which is hands down the best mono on the market from 10lb class up, and i'll argue till i'm blue in the face about that with anyone. So who makes the best light tackle line from 2-6 pound test? Why is it so good? (castability? /Strength?/ Stretch?/ Abrasion resistance?/ Price?)
