Best Type Of Mono?

Featured Replies

I can't afford all the crazy boxes of mono like MAXX, and sensation. I just get the Berkley big game mono in 12-17 lb. test if i'm using mono.

no no dont apologize im kinda curious too because i live in pa and a good chunk of the time im fishing cold water too and i was curious about that p line anyways cause im going to bass pro today and im split between the p line and the suffix elite

Suffix Elite is great stuff for sub zero. It's what I use in my centerpin for winter steelheading. Again, KVD L&L will help seal the line, and keep the ice off.

i do use the kvd line treatment a lot on my other reels and line and i was very surprised how well it worked but overall do you think suffix elite is a pretty good line for a spinning reel? most of the time i either do a small lipless or weightless worms on it since i got a new bc reel that will cover a lot of other lures ie spinner baits larger cranks jigs topwater etc so now it wil mostly come down to weightless soft plastics and small lipless cranks on my spinning reel

For ice cold conditions, it's fine line. That's 8# Elite on a 2500 Daiwa spinner:

As a leader or main line? Have you expeimented with the specialized float line?

For mainline. I like the bright yellow so other can see my stuff coming a mile away.

The float line doesn't make sense - it's a braid. Braid sucks in sub freezing, and the zero stretch is a big time disadvantage with tiny hooks, and hard charging steelhead.

I've been very happy with Sufix Elite. Best mono that I've used - and I've used many.

cxx is strong as a ox , but so it sufix elite, with almost zero memory.
