MASTERLINE BLUE OR YELLOW LINE

[southwales]

Looking at those tests done on abrasion and strength this seems to be the best all round, where can I get some on line from a tackle dealer, its cheaper than red ice or sensor too, good for regular replacing

I notice from your earlier post that you are fishing on rough ground close in. I would suggest that thinner line would not be a priority. I use Trilene Big Game in various sizes. It is not the best in diameter but is strong and resists abrasion very well. It\'s a bugger to snap out of snags when new on the reel.

As Peter says - if you\'re fishing in the rough stuff, you can\'t better the Berkely Trilene Big Game. I use nothing else (30lb straight through). It is VERY difficult to pull for the break if you get snagged - however, using Pauls\' (Hirams\') \"cannylinks\" it\'s a doddle and you only lose your weight.
Also, I use 20lb Amnesia for my rigs - so if it\'s a hook snag, rather than a weight snag - you lose THAT and not your main line.

MASTERLINE is about the strongest lads, 15 breaks at 24 in tests

and its quite high on the abrasion test as well

25 would therefore break at well over 30

and its not thin either, so the label says
