Line questions

You will probably be using mono. I have had good luck with Treilene Big Game and Sufix Siege, both in 12 pound test. Whatever line you choose, make sure it is 0.014 in diameter to match the dive charts. 16 pound Sunline is 0.014 but I had breakage issues with it and quit usIng it.

Thanks. I had the same issue last year with that same line. I lost a board using it and I’m replacing the line for that reason.

The concensus on line material is braid for big boards and mono for in line boards.We use the green Maxima 15lb mono for our in line and has worked well for us.Been using past 2 seasons without a break or a board coming off.Blue Dolphin recommended Maxima and the diameter of the 15lb is real close to diameter used in the dive charts.

Man...just my luck ! Seen a couple posts where they we're using #16 Sunline, and loved it. So what do i do, buy a 3300 yard spool, to re-spool 6 board rods....now i'm in question.
