I cannot lie and say this is the best fishing line out there, as I have not tried all types of fishing line and I am sure there are others that function better in certain circumstances. However, I can say that this fishing line does the job intended and does not cost a lot of money in doing so. I have done a lot of fishing with this line as well as Berkley's Big Game line and have never had a fish snap my line. Granted, I never catch huge fish, but that doesn't alter the fact that every time this line has brought it in for me. Even better, this fishing line has retrieved numerous lures and hooks from hang-ups in trees and weeds where they may have otherwise been lost. True, it doesn't work to save them every time, but it does more often than not. Just as with fishing, some of that may be my own personal skill involved and the knots tied; however, I don't believe it would be possible without a decent line on my reel as well.

For anyone in need of decent line, I would most definitely recommend Berkley's Trilene XT, or even their Big Game line for that matter. As I said before, for certain circumstances, it would be appropriate to obtain other lines as well; however, for general fishing this line does the job.

horrible at holding knots. very thick daimeter i order 25 and its thicker than my stren 40lb test. i would never buy this again. all my knots would slip and i would lose my tackle no matter how many knots i put in it.
