Hi

Like the other guys I have been using Maxima - until last year that is
when I tried the new Teklon Gold which gives double the strength for the
same thickness of line. I have to say it took a bit of getting used to
- I normally fish 4lb straight through so it was like working with 2lb
line. At first it seemed to kink quite a bit but soon settled down. I
normally fish for tench and have had no trouble landing fish to 6lbs
last year - but my best was a 17lb 8oz common. OK, so it took 20
minutes to bring him in - but what a delightful scrap and isn't that
what fishing is all about anyway?

Thought you may like to give it a try.

Good luck

Peter
