hazmail Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 (edited) Don't say I never tell you guys nothing - here is a site (Australian of course, not U.S, so it must be true ) of just about all the line brands you can name tested @ 'Names', true diameter, 'stated test lb', 'true test lb'- If you want another tested send 2.5 meters (8' ) to him and he will test it - SORRY, If it's not on the list it's probably no good . These are tested in his back yard shed, not at some sponsors lab:drool: .(The "True Diameter is tested round , not flat as most state on their packaging) >pete Paulus Just Fishing Edited August 8, 2009 by hazmail Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RiverMan Posted August 8, 2009 Report Share Posted August 8, 2009 (edited) I love line tests! Thank you for sharing this link. Some lines may have an average score in a tension strength (straight pull) but score very high in abrasion resistance. I couldn't find any abrasion tests.
