What is the shelf life of a spool of mono line? Someone recently posted
that they bought a 10,700 yard spool of Trilene XL. How long can that be
expected to maintain its strength? What are the ideal storage conditions
for a large spool of mono?
Thanks for your replies.

Less for some than others

I had poor results with long-term storage of
Trilene, better with Stren (now they will be the same?). I'm happy with 3-4
years on bulk spools, prolly 'cause I'm fishing less than ever
