best line

[topbanana]

i have always used 30lb diawa sensor for heavy ground but i have come to the conclusion that it is a bit thick. plus i think there are times when a bit extra distance can be helpful over the rough stuff.

so what i would like to know is which 25lb line would be best over the heavy ground obviously used with a rubbing leader.

thanks people

thanks a lot lads. just been looking at it on line and it sounds good

F1 mate, excellent stuff.

25lb sensor.

25lb sensor is still .52mm compared to 30lb f1 which is .45mm so am gonna give that a bash i think, cheers.

Ultima power plus is the best line I have used and its also the thinnest. 30lb is 0.45mm and and I think the 25lb is 0.40mm.

Profish ghost line but good luck getting some I have been trying for months

Yep, it's good line. Same low diameter as F1, I switched from that to F1 as I found the F1 a bit more abrasion resistant but still get it as an alternative.

dont rate F1. after trying a much more reliable line

Which line would that be then my friend ? Its not that moimoi stuff is it ?

Low diameter lines for breaking strains are normally pre-stretched.

Rough ground fishing buy on diameter over pound line.

i actually agree with you mate, thats what i was taught years ago off a good friend. but i fancy trying something different and a lot of people seem to rate this f1

18lb sensor for distance and rough seas/ headwind
20lb normally

25lb sensor for rock hopping and dragging fish through boulders (short range fishing)
30lb

thats just my choice.

i rememeber loosing a big cod off johnsons mark near frenchmans point using f1. there was nowt wrong with the leader knot either
