Which Fishing Line - Test results.

I thought that some of you might be interested in the latest line tests which were published 25th May by 'The Tackle Box' Dartford in Kent.

Heres a link to their Line Tests

Going on the line diameters and line strengths of the lines tested it seems like the winners were?:
1. Kryston-ite
2. Daiwa Sensor
3. Gold Label Pro Gold

The EFTTA line test results are also interesting reading.

Re: Which Fishing Line - Test results.

Same here. No nonsense good price and reliable, abrasion resistant. Don't use it for hooklinks though.

Re: Which Fishing Line - Test results.

Some of those results are shocking. some of the double strengths are nowhere near stated breaking strain.

Big sigh of relief though with Middy Lo Viz looking good, that's what I usually use as a hooklength (for coarse) and amnesia for sea.

Phew!
