Berkley Nanofil Wins Best Of Show At Icast

Featured Replies

Best of Show and Best in Line Awards go to the Nano stuff. Anyone tried it yet?

I've felt it in store. It just feels too thin, like it would just dig into itself constantly. And they only make it up to 12 pound, I think. And I thought braid could get nasty knots, I can't begin to imagine a knot in this stuff.

It's for spinning reels only. Otherwise it will dig into your reel and cause a mess.

Use a Palomar or Uni-knot with it. Anything else could slip.

Back off a bit on your drag. It's just like braid - zero stretch.

Use a Fluorocarbon leader in extremely clear water.

Hope that helps!

I just ordered a spool of the 10# Nanofil from BPS. I'll let you know how it performs on a Med-Hvy spinning rig.

I also wanted to try the 2# test for my UL crappie rod, but BPS doesn't carry it. Will have to "roadtrip" down to Cabelas in Hartford for it in a couple of weeks or so. :)

I may try some on my plastics spinning rod...
