C Rig Line Help For This Weekend

Featured Replies

Hey guys, so I have a tourney this Sunday and hopefully will get out to practice Saturday as well. So been throwing 15-17lb FC as my main line however no one local has anything other than Red label or Trilene. Any other brands any of you throw that have really good abrasion resistance that someone local might have??? DSG has p lines stuff and Sufix FC which I haven't tried either. I've heard horror stories about the Sufix FC but I love their monos.... Help lol please

Try a copoly?

I use 15# yzhybrid and have no issues.

I hate that line with a utter passion. No offense. Want to stick with a regular FC. I may have to make the hour and half drive to my Cabelas and grab AbrazX :/ don't want Seaguar but I know it will work.

If you have to purchase from DSG, pick up some Trilene 100% flouro in 15lb test.

I've used the Pline FC and their Fluroclear (co-poly) a few times. Both are excellent lines.

If DSG is what you have close by , I 2nd the Trilene 100% 15lb. (not the Vanish) ... Also give the Hi-Seas FC a try as I know DSG carries that which a few pros use .

Thanks guys I'll see what they have tonight.

Red Label and Trilene (assuming its 100% Fluoro) will have you pretty well covered. Red Label, when brand new is extremely manageable and casts great, holds up just fine to most types of cover. I like it for any chuck and wind applications. It tends to coil up on reels that dont see a lot of use but its a great everyday line and cheap. Trilene on the otherhand covers the other end of the spectrum as it is stiff, strong and its abrasion resistance is right up there with Shooter and Abrasx. Its great for heavy cover pitching, using as leader, rocky areas, C-Rig, T-Rig, jigs. People struggle with Trilene that don't have a lot of Fluorocarbon experience, just an fyi.

I use Excalibur silver thread copolymer line. It's soft and plyable. Abrasion resistance, easy to tie knots.

Where's your tornie at?

I have some red label it can't handle the 3/4oz tungsten sliding on it. May try the Trilene out. Gonna hit a shop tomorrow Am before practice that's near the lake.
