GREYLON LINE

[southwales]

35 pound stuff is good, has diameter of normal 25 pound, on sale down this way for £10 a spool of 1000 yards

I like the look of that, but I\'ll wait till I can get into a shop that stocks it.
I\'m off mail order for the moment.
Someone recommended Shakespeare Aerial as a shock leader, so I ordered a couple of spools on-line from \'Swifty\'s Fishing Warehousee\', as I live inland and local shops don\'t stock it.
That was on Oct 19th.
Got two spools five days later - wrong brand, wrong BS. Emailed them and they explained the mix up was due to them getting both brands of line from the same wholesaler.
Don\'t know why that should matter. I get both bacon and bog rolls from Asda, but my bacon butties have tasted OK so far.
Sent the wrong stuff back 1st class recorded delivery as requested and at my expense.
According to PO they received it on Oct 28th, but have I got a replacemen or refund?
Have I h*ll, despite a couple of Emails and a phone call.
OK so the money involved wasn\'t all that much, but it really p*ss*s me off, especially as the tackle shops I normally use are so helpful and would probably have got me the line themselves if I\'d asked.
I\'ll know better next time though.

Haven\'t had a look at it yet but one of my mates was using it last week and had 50lb snoods snap. He wasn\'t very confident in it after that.

[ollie]

im using the 35lb as well ,so far its been good and i only paid 7.50 with discount

It could have been a conger , they will bite through eighty pound down here in wales or it could have been chaffed over a few casts, fifty or not.

He usually uses greased weasel and bother. Will have to have a look and try it out myself.
