[cool][size 2]I was going to ask the question "which is your favorite brand of fishing line". Not that I am looking to change myself. I like Berkley. FYI I indicate the date, strength and brand inside of my spools. Would you believe that the line [4lb] on my Shamino Aero TX is Berkley TriMax dated 5/91. I have yet to have it break off or coil up. So was thinking that it is probably time to change lines. Here are some interesting facts about the cost of their 4lb test lines. I can aford to buy the Fireline since it will probably last me until the year 2017.[/size]

That's quite informative actually. I haven't decided on a favorite yet. So far I've been sticking with Trilene but I'm thinking about trying Stren's newest braided line which is supposed to be fray resistent and rounder than the other brands. I'm also giving Cajun Red Lightning a try this year.
