Rich7 Posted March 9, 2020 Report Share Posted March 9, 2020 Hi its come to that time when I’m about to re line all my carp reels. I’ve used Daiwa sensor for the past few yrs but just wondering if it’s worth going for hyper sensor instead. Is it much of/ any improvement Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
salokcinnodrog Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 Sensor is one of the best lines out there, far better than more expensive brands. I have played fish in and out of lily beds, round snags, even round buoy chains and landed fish. It also casts well, I used to cast around 120metres with 15lb line on 2.75lb SP's. ALL mono is stretchy, between 15-25% before it gives way, and there are worse than Sensor. If I hadn't been given some Gardner Pro to test by Richard Gardner I would still be using it in preference to any other line. emmcee 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmoputney Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 I put some hyper sensor on my baitrunner didn't really like it, I thought korda carp line was quite a good budget line, but I would rather spend a bit more on line and have found I get on really well with gardner hydrotuff yonny 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
framey Posted April 27, 2020 Report Share Posted April 27, 2020 (edited) I thought sensor was pony as well when I used it years ago but I have given it a new try in 4 6 and 8lb Edited April 27, 2020 by framey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smufter Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 (edited) Have used Sensor before and not had any problems with it. My daughter Liddy has Hyper Sensor on her reels and gets on okay with it. Have also tried CM90. It behaved well, gave me no problems, but I just wasn't happy with the colour of it. It stood out like a sore thumb going through the water which didn't do a lot for my confidence. So off it came. My line of choice is Shimano Technium Black. It has never let me down. I use 12lb when fishing here, upping to 15lb when I fish in France. I can honestly say that I have never, (ever!), had a problem with it. No unexpected breaks, it casts well, sinks well and hangs nice and limply through the rings. I've tried others, (purely out of curiosity), but always come back to Technium Black and would recommend it 100% to anybody.

yonny Posted April 28, 2020 Report Share Posted April 28, 2020 I use Sensor as backing as it's so cheap. It does a job but it aint on a patch on the modern copolymers imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
