thanks big feller..that has explained the diameter verses lb breaking strain thing, i always get the scales out and stretch then break the line just to see how far out the adverts are. But, a general question, just how much force are carp capable of pulling against your tackle? i know on a pole with double elastics a 20 plus carp (or cats are worse) on 12meters the force they apply on you when they take makes yu sweat lol (12 meter of leverage n all..).
The takeaway most people aren't getting is this; Breaking strain is all over the place. Diameter is much more reliable as most mono .37 lines will all break at the same amount regardless of the advertised breaking strain. The advertised breaking strain is utterly pointless as each manufacturer has different safety margins, Korda for example will have touchdown 15lb .40 lines breaking at low 20lb. Whereas some lesser-known brands will even have their lines breaking before said breaking strain. This is why every distance caster worth their salt tells you to ignore the breaking strain. Because the diameter is universal, whereas breaking strain completely depends on what safety margin (or lack of) said manufacturer is willing to chance.
Christopher Bingle most lines break higher than their rating. Problem is ppl overload for distance casting. Many ppl have brought in much bigger fish than they thought possible on smaller lines.
cotsworld carper technically and factually aas either have no effect or can make your penis larger which is why woman with high testosterone/aas dosages there labia swells and enlarges. The clue is sex hormone
Even 4oz let alone 5oz with 0.35 line is dangerous for any more than just an overhead lob. Shouldnt be going by diameter, should be going by breaking strain. As you said, some 15lb lines can be 0.38 or 0.40. Therefore 0.35mm of that line isnt going to be 15lb is it!! Only way to be casting safely is using 10lb for every 1oz of weight cast.
UK is country of bans and restrictions. Just ban a venue from your list. Let them financially suffer.

Well it don’t look like Dave is going to have any problems putting a lead out there regardless off any restrictions... 🏋️♂️
Haha. I look lanky at the best of time too
Good sensible advice
I was thinking he was going to demonstrate with Joe instead of a lead 😂 #beast 😂
Be plenty of trailors next season if lots of people start trying to go xxl with 4oz leads and 15lb mono!
Would love to know what the line is if its stated 15lb an breaks at 21lb
Esp synchro xt matches his description, inc the numbers.

Gardner hydro tuff is rated at 12lb and breaks at 21lb
And Gardner matches specs
Kroda subline in 15lbs bracks at just under 22lbs.
350 test & deca vs noddle & Greg's
Simon Shears true that 😂😂😂

Don't think he's been using his needle to inject his pva bags🤔 great caster tho👍🏻

Old matey uses 0.37 mono and can punch a lead out 200 yards cos he's on fucking steroids 🤣🤣
It obviously helps if you’re built like a brick shit house lol
Bet that guy was a bouncer. I bet he even asks the carp for ID before they're allowed in his net. No under 18's allowed
Not tonight , not tonight , ya names not down ya not coming in
Lift some weights too Joe!
Just a sales pitch really
would never buy century rods ever again after all the problems I've had with mine.
