I used 20 lb fireline for pike and bass in pretty heavy cover. If you got snagged, you either straightened the hooks on your bait or drug the boat to the snap. Only other option was to wrap a rag around your hand and take line from the reel then wrap around your hand and put the boat in full speed reverse lmao
I would prefer to know which line has the best knot strength! And what was the strength without you pulling back on the line, which COULD effectively double the amount of line tested!
That would depend which knot you use. I use a Uni knot for everything, strongest knot in the world. Use that one and the line will always break before the knot does except for flourocarbon, thats stuff is so brittle you have to use either a Berkley knot or double uni(same thing). Hope this helps 👍
@@LowBudgetBassin Yeah fluorocarbon sucks. I bought into it for the clarity in water, but the line strength just isn't there. Using Fireline fused Crystal, now in place of nylon mono 11 lb, which worked for years up to and including chinook salmon (with a steel leader).
A few flaws in your testing technique. First, each spool of like will be wrapped at a different tightness, so there will be more give in one roll over another as the line digs in. Next.... your wrapping the line on the scales.... NO. Its not the same each time. You should have a knot on each end, and the end where you have the spool needs to be at least 10' long and attached to an immovable object with a good knot. Just imagine a 7' rod with your reel on it, and line still out in the water a few feet. I watched someone else on a video trying to test braided line with a 1' piece of line to see if it would break at its rated strength. He also messed up because nobody has a rod that short. You would have to have your line attach to the end of a 2" screw, and your hand 2" above the water, with a fish just 8" under. Never going to happen.
Paulpro PP yeah exactly. you can still get 100 percent knot strength with an improved clinch. and then you don't have to worry about the line snapping around where you wrap it on the scale.

I am ok using anything on my bait casting rods accept Stren. I absolutely hate Stren fishing line. If you happen to get a backlash with Trilene it will usually pull right out, if it happens with Stren you will be digging that shit out for days and you will end up cutting the backlash out.
I tried the fire line. and I hated it. I put it on my baitcaster and it just casted like trash. and I mean I was whipping it out there with a 3/4oz lure.
Terrible testing criteria. You are comparing 3 totally different products against each other? Braid vs Mono vs Unifilament? Mono has no business in the test at all. Compare the line diameter of the fireline vs Nanofil. Also unless you have a High Quality Rod with great eye inserts the fireline will eat grooves into your inserts. I’ve used them all and Fireline is the worst for me. I use the Nanofil 10lb on my spinning gear and Suffix 832 on baitcast applications.

I've straightened hooks with fireline fused 4-6lb test with a polymer knot.
the fire line fused broke at 16lbs? Amazing
Nano casts better than any line, but wears quickly and cuts easily on rocks or structure, I prefer fireline
Awesome,the Fireline Fused is popular here in Malaysia,but hard to find.Great stuff for heavy cover snakehead fishing
cool my bro keep slaying
70% of the video him spoiling up the line to the weight
You should let us see the diameter of line each brand

@@davisrs1 Awesome, I gotta try that kind sometime, thanks
Fireline has literally saved me hundreds of dollars
Hi!
Could you explain the difference between nanofil & monofil?
Nanofil is not a mono or a braid more like foreline fused but smoother like silk

Yes. He's demonstrating tension rather than strength of line,,,
Bro. just tie a knot to a hook and put the hook on the scale.
Pumba Nation year but that's like testing the knot

@@davisrs1 anything but flourocarbon lol. I use a Uni knot for everything, strongest knot known to man(well some men)👍

this line is stronger than the label 2x
Why would you do that this way you know that pulling hard on one end up a spool fucks the entire spool up and throws out all research you just did?
Those 3 extra pounds came from not using two knots so the length of the test changes.
Couldn't get through 3 minutes. Painful to watch. Lol
Line is digging into itself on the spool.
Not using a knot.
So many issues here. Lol

hateful Joey I’m just starting to try it, it’s not bad, but definitely not my favorite

trilene mono or fireline for bass fishing?
stn0505 I like fireline for thinner diameter and the castability is insane. 6-10lb

Fire line (20lb is best for almost
all applications)
