Default Suffix Monofilament

Hey everyone, I got another question.

What is the difference between Suffix Elite Mono and Suffix Seige Mono. Which do you think will be better for crankbaits? (smaller crankbaits, nothing big.)

Thanks again,

BB

The difference is that elite is limper with less memory amd siege is tougher with more abrasion resistance. I use both.I preferr Elite for the higland lakes I fish but if you fish a lake with lots of wood/brush cover I recomend seige. It has a little more memory buit is very abrasion resistant. Small cranks, Elite

Elite, the red spool, is for longer, smooth casting. The siege, blue spool, is for abrasion resistance. Fish2Win hit the nail on the head on this one!

I also like both of these lines. Their braided line is excellent as well. Great products for a fair price.

What about the sufix it the big spools that wally world sells. I think it's like 7 or 8 dollars for 1000 yds or so.

I just bought my first spool on Suffix Elite. I got the 10 lb and plan to try it out on one of crank bait sticks.

I have a big spool of that I use now as backing for my better lines. I wasn't impressed with their so call abraision resistants. It frayed worse than most lines I've used.
