Gami EWG vs. 6lb P-Line co-polymer.......which do you think won?

P-Line co-polymer just amazes me how tough, strong and abrasion tolerant it is.
And for such a strong line it has surprisingly little memory. A little use and it seems to straighten right out.
I hate line that is all stiff and coiled up.
And man when it finally breaks off on a snag it tends to break at the knot...not at the 1st scratch.
I give it an A+

I agree, that P-Line is some great stuff! ..is that a split shot above the hook? what kind of rig were ya using, if i might ask.. never used one that way..

Yeah it's a split shot. When tossing 3" TrikStick's (senko knockoff) in wind a little tiny splitshot right above the bait helps it to sink. A little tip Roger "EBG" showed me one day. I work it much the same way you'd work a little jig.....only it's a lot more weedless.

Which Copolymer is that? The CXX extra strong?

Hey Mike how do you find the casting distance on that? Same as regular mono lines or like brand where it doesn't seem to go as far sometimes.

Basscaster, I forgot to look on the boxes to see what was printed on it. Will do that a lunch. But I think your right. I do it has a light green color to it.
Geoff, left the camera in camp w/ the family. I'm not real good about getting fish pics....I seem to be more wrapped up in fishing. I really need to get a live well solution in place for the new sled.....then I could pack them around & amire them until I think to take pics. Chance used to "guard them" to make sure they didn't jump out on the Tracker. :laugh:
But the packing them around comment is probably a bad idea until they come off nests. Take a male off a nest and you pretty much doom that hatch.
