    P-line works for me. Several different products to suit your fishing needs.

    I have always had very good success with Stren Flourescent Blue and P-Line CCX. both maintain their limpness and strength, some memory problems but just string it behind the boat for few minutes and it clears that up...Tight Lines and keep fishin

    I used Trilene Maxx this year in the past year I used P-line evelution and loved it, the Trilene Maxx seems to break off easier, and it doesn't turn to gold in the sunlight light berkley vanish. I will be going back to P-line. I found the bp line nicked easy.

    I like Trilene XL and Trilene XT depending on my gear. I have had no problems at all. Tried P-line but it seems to break easier.

    As many have said, I too use Stren. That said, Stren is also made by the same company that makes Trileen, I believe.

    BTW, I also have Spiderwire for my CRing.

    One thing I like about the spiderwire is that is so pliant, yet very strong. I truly believe that the reason such light weight line works is that it allows for better movement of the bait. That is why I prefer Stren's 10 lb. test line as my line of choice.

    No, not sponsored at all by them... LMAO

    Gamma 12lb Clear Blue, great all around line. I've always used a Palomar knot, but started recently tieing a Double Eugene Bend and it seems to hold better than my old faithful palomar. Good luck...
