What is a good line for a spinning reel. I curently have 12 lb test mono
on
my reel and am experiencing some major line twisting in no time at
all.....

I agree with Steve; I've owned perhaps 25 spinning reels and maybe a
half-dozen of them twisted line badly, regardless of what I did.

A good line for a spinning reel has low memory and handles easily. Two lines
that I use that qualify are Trilene XL and Original Stren.

Line problems are minimized when the reel spool has a large diameter
relative to the line size. If you're using 12# on, say, a 2000 size reel,
going to a 4000 might help.

Just last year I discovered that a new reel was one of those that twisted
line. I wanted to continue using that reel, so I followed advice I received
and replaced 10# mono with 14# Fireline. That stuff does not twist, period,
but it is subject to the other problems of loose line and tangles, but
that's easier to control than bad twist.

Good luck.
