    What string and test should I use trolling offshore boards with spoons. I haven’t put new string on my reels in a few years.

    I use Maxima ultragreen 15lb test.Most trollers use mono from 10-12lb test because closest to diameter of line used in dive curves.I use a little heavier line because I spool other peoples lines and they are prone to breaking things off more frequently.

    Actually Nicholas Zart recommended that mono like 8yrs ago when he worked at the Rodmakers Shop.Im on my second big spool now.Line has worked well for us too.The color is not hi visibility,it blends with water color.But have been reading posts from accomplished trollers that use hi vis line right to their lures and say that it doesnt affect their catch rate.
