Ultima red ice

[zippie]

Anybody used this in 30lb breaking strain, is it cheap any chatty or good enough to lose in the rock but not at the expense of a fish?

Zippie, I think it\'s a crackin\' line........oops, perhaps not the best turn of phrase, there......lol

It\'s very good. I used nothing else until last year, when I started using Trilene.

Just had a look on Billys website (see \"Online Tackle Dealers\" in the weblinks)......lools like he\'s selling it for a 5er a spool.......don\'t forget, as a NESA member, Billy offers 10% discount, aswell

I use it all the time on the rough stuff (35lb) and wouldn\'t swap it for anything. Must have five spools of 20lb (uptiding) and 35lb in the cupboard!

Used red ice for the past 3 seasons and it\'s cracking. Low diameter, good abrasion resistance and cheaper than simliar lines of this quality.

if you are after a line for the rock marks where abrasion resistance is of paramount importance you can\'t go past ghost line, not overly expensive but top of the abrasion resistance tests by a proverbial mile

(scroll down to the second of the tables for the abrasion test results.)
the abrasion resistance does in my opinion come at a cost, it is quite \"springy\" but not overly so.
