    Yup. I actually already bought another spool of 18 lb before I heard your feedback for my annual re-spool - but I don't need to! There's nowt wrong with the stuff that's been on for a year! So in another year or two I'll go for the 15 lol...

    You won't regret getting the rig marole line it really does seem to tick a lot of boxes , I was fishing semi slack with it the other week on two margin rods & it hung down perfectly with no sign of it wanting to coil , like yonny mentioned I got it in 15lb & can't see any reason for stepping up to 20 lb , think yonny said he might try the 15lb next time . As a side note ..... are you mad yonny 100 + yards think of all the fish your be casting over Buy in confidence Richard it's a quality snag line with out doubt ..... once you get used to the colour

    Personally I think coiling of any line is down to how you load it on your spool....rather than the line itself. Unless it's on a reel that's not been used for some time.

    Thanks guys! Just looking on eBay now. There is seller doing it for £20 delivered. Sounds good to me. Just need to decide on breaking strain now. I think given that I've got 12lb Gardner already some 15lb of the Rig Marole should give me the flexibility. Thanks to everyone. I'll just need some carp to test the dam thing out, something I've had little of for the last few weeks! I did however land a nice looking duck last weekend!

    It's still a snag line at the end of the day so it's not the most supple line you've ever seen but it's miles better than most. I wouldn't particularly say it coils off the spool, I've certainly not had any issues and I'm using the 18 lb version (have been for a year now)!! I now use it as my every day line, it's the toughest line I've ever known but it casts OK, it's fine to well over 100 yards. I put Chillfactor on to it (he went for the 15 lb) and he's already seen the benefits when he got snagged up - I'm sure he'll comment at some point. He's cast 140 with it which says a lot. Crusian is on the 12 lb - not heard feedback from him yet but I fully expect good things. I cannot recommend this stuff enough mate, it's just brilliant. I can honestly say it's the best line I've ever used. I'm going to France in a couple of weeks to a water that's all 100 yards +. Normally I put a casting line on for that but this year I'm not bothering. I don't need to. At the shows last summer Rig Marole were doing a demo where they were sawing through wood with this line!!!! It's that tough.

    Thanks yonny, Very valid points you make. I'm particularly interested in the Rig Marole SLS line for snag fishing. I've never heard of it but just looked now and it does sound pretty awesome stuff. I'm booked on a water next month that has lots of snags close in. Does the line tend to coil when it comes off the spool? I've usually ended up with a big tangle when I've been using high abrasion resistant lines in the past!

    Do not load up with the same line, it's pointless fella. Go with something that achieves something different to give yourself options. GT8O is an all-rounder so go with either a casting line or a snag line, depending on which one you might use the most. For casting check out the pre-stretched lines (Fox Exocet is a good'n) or semi pre-stretched (Technium, GT-HD etc.). For snag lines look no further than Rig Marole SLS Specimon Tough (awesome stuff) or Gardner Hydro Tuff.
