heavy ground mono and poundage

[garry36]

hi im wondering what mono and poundage are people using for very rough ground and with or without a rubbing leader thanks garry36

 

[The Great Wallsendo]

40lb Greys Greylon at the moment

...although I'm looking to change as it tends to scuff up very easily

 

[phil185]

30lb ultima F1, seems a little more resistant to abraision than others i have tried, only suitable for short lobs though.

diawa sensor 30lb, used it for years and it's as tuff as hell, it's also a reasonable price

 

[Gaverick]

Ultima Red Ice 30lb. Thicker than the standard Ultima F1 so it's less prone to abrasion and also very easy to see in the dark due to being bright red.

 

[tonybax]

go for f1 m8 its different class imho 35lb great stuff

 

[kingcod deano]

diawa sensor 25lb line is awesome for the rocks i think 30lb is too thick and you loss alot of distance from your cast

 

[g-force]

30lb Suffix with a 60lb leader - copes with just about anything mate!

I don't mind the 30 lb Diawa sensor and I used the 30 lb Red Ice for years with no problems but I usually use the 35 lb F1 now, it really is good. The only problem I have is snapping it when I'm in a snag as it is so strong, and my ballance is very poor now so I have to be careful with it or I'll end up on me ass lol.

65lb braid

65lb braid

i have been useing 65 lb braid for 5yr now when fishing heavy ground and will never use mono again my fish lose has gone down by over 75% bite detection is second to none i use a abu 7500 and a penn 535

 

[CHUKKA]

Trilene, greylon 40lb or penn premium 30lb. All clear lines and tough as old boots especially with a 80lb ultima leader tied with a bimini hitch.

Daiwa sensor 35lb cracking line never lets me down

 

[dazzer]

I use Penn Surf 35lb on one reel and 30lb red ice on another.

If it is very heavy ground I use the 35lb, if it's not so heavy, the 30lb.

alrite mate do u not get any probs using braid as wanted to try it on one of my multiplyers? use it on fixed spools and on my multi for boat fishin and would never go back, but thought castin it off a multi would be asking for trouble was told by another angler to use 80lb braid on a multi??

Trilene 40lb

 

[bozjc]

i have a few reels loaded with heavy line for rock marks.
just depends on where i fish, if its heavy weed, or if i need to chuck a wee bit further, i use lowish diameter 30 -35lb line.

if its uber snaggy and there are ledges etc, i go for the thicker diameter lines. better abrasive resistance against rocks when doing short lobs.

suffix and trilene seem to be the better lines (strength wise).
all down to personal choice lol
