Fishing Line
I bought several packages of last year's Spiderwire XXX on sale. While tying a knot on 8 pound line it broke under very little pressure. That prompted me to test the 8, 17 and 20 pound line. I used my fish weighing scale and the line broke under 2, 6 and 7 pounds of pressure. Does fishing line weaken that quickly even while still in its original packaging? That prompted me to test my 14 pound test Iron Silk that is a couple of years old and it broke under 6 pounds of pressure. So, I am off to the tackle shop today for all new line on 9 reels. Does anyone have suggestions for the pound test and make of line to use for walleye jigging & lindy rigging and for casting spoons for pike?
