I purchased some of the 10lb. Fireline in green. I have used it for many hours for trout fishing on my spinning reel. I have no curl or coil problems like I did with mono lines. The line has a solid feel when a strike occurs. When I hang a limb and need to break off, the line does not fray and it breaks at or close to the knot. You may be tempted to buy larger pound capacity line because it is so small a diameter, Don't! Get the poundage you normally get and enjoy the better lure action and catch more fish! I have noticed that the crimp on weights slip easily up the line if you don't pay special attention to crimping them real well. I have fished with Berkly products for over 40 years, this is the best line from them to date.
I give it only four stars because of the high price of the product. While I agree it is way superior to mono, it is still to costly.

I've used this line before, its much smaller in diameter than traditional mono line and therefore able to string a heavier lb test without sacrificing amount strung. I use to 10 lb test on a spinning reel, I typically only fish for bass and catfish in local ponds. However, the 10 lb test line will hold its own vs. some of the larger river fish as long as drag is properly set. Also, knotting with this line is fairly easy. One thing I will say though is if you are a novice fisher trying to use this line, be ready to catch on quick - this superline is sensitive. You can feel every little rock and pebble the line bounces across, so know if its a fish or not.

This stuff is amazing.......for beading. It's super strong, very easy to thread through a needle and unlike some other beading threads, doesn't give a stiff feel to beaded jewelry. I've used it to make bracelets, rings and necklaces and even though it's white in color, it's fine enough not to show or detract from the color of the beads. If it came in clear it would be perfect. I've also tried the smoke color but it's coating tends to slough off and bunch up and needs to be cleaned as you go. If fishing isn't your thing but beading is, you need to try Berkley Fireline.

I use this product for beading, making jewelry. And its great. Its thin, pliable, yet strong enough to hold together intricate patterns of beads.

This was exactly what I was looking for, it is almost invisible and works great for small beading projects. It arrived very quickly and there were no problems with the packaging.

This is great for doing beading and using seed beads.. The price was the best I have found for Fireline. Will order more.
