Tree123 Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 (edited) After being on braid for a few months. Rules have changed and means I have. I love braid as find it so easy for feeling the drop. Are they any decent low stretch mono out there?

yonny Posted January 7, 2019 Report Share Posted January 7, 2019 Any of the pre-stretched lines have low stretch but you sacrifice abrasion resistance. If you want better abrasion resistance you can go for a semi-stretched line like Technium Black or GT-HD. I have a mate that told me about a test he read in which Hydro Tuff came out with lower stretch than the semi-stretched lines. That really surprised me as Hydro Tuff is a full on snag line with amazing abrasion resistance. Worth checking out as that makes it a very special line indeed (it's what I use and have used since before I heard about this test). I use the .40 (20lb) and still get a banging drop so I can believe it. Tree123 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By pre stretched I'm guessing you mean the likes of fox exocet or simallar Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good on abrasion compared to most pre stretched lines . I was using it in15 lb in weedy waters . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
