How To Choose Fishing Line For New Angler

Choosing the right fishing line for your needs can be a difficult task. There are so many options and variations in each brand that it is difficult to know which one will work best for you. In this blog post, we'll cover how to choose fishing line for new anglers such as yourself.


We'll start by discussing the different types of fishing lines available to you: monofilament, braided nylon, fluorocarbon and braid-core lines. We then review what these materials are suited for before providing instructions on how to choose between them based on your own individual needs. Finally, we provide some general tips on how to get more out of your fishing experience with the right equipment!

It's very common that a new angler will come into a tackle shop and ask the question "What is the best fishing line for me to use?" This, as most things in life, isn't only a matter of personal preference but also requires an understanding of how you fish. Before we can pick what fishing line might be right for you there are a few questions you should first ask yourself.

How often do I go fishing? If it's only an occasional trip down to the local pond for some bluegill and bass then chances are that we can pick a line that is cost effective and durable enough for what your needs may be. However, if you're getting into the sport of fishing and know there will be many more trips to come, it's probably best that you look at a line that is going to last a long time. The last thing you want is for your new fishing hobby to be disrupted by having to change lines every trip because the one you have wears out too quickly.

Do I need a clear fishing line? If you're fishing for bass and the water is cloudy, a clear line will make it much easier to see your lure in the water. Remember that with all fishing lines though, there's a chance that some color from the line itself will bleed into the water and discolor it. It's best if you pick a clear fishing line that is closest to the color of the water you're fishing in.

How important is strength? If you plan to fish for billfish or other large game fish, it's best that you pick a line with higher pound test (strength). This will be necessary if your game fish makes an unexpected or explosive run because your line may break or snap. If you're fishing for smaller game fish, it might be best to pick a line with lower pound test so that your line will break before the fish's teeth or gills do if it happens to get snagged.

Do I target multiple kinds of fish? If you're targeting multiple species of fish on the same trip then chances are you'll want to have a line that can be used for multiple fish. There are many lines on the market right now, specifically designed for different fishing types and conditions so it's best to pick one of these lines. Choosing a line that isn't going to match your needs will only cause frustration and worse – lost fish.

What size line would I like? There's a very noticeable difference in diameter (size) when comparing different fishing lines. This also makes a huge impact on the strength of the line and if you're not careful, will have an effect on your casting distance. The smaller the line diameter, the more sensitive it is to being spooled onto your reel. If you have a very sensitive rod, it's normally best to pick a line with a smaller diameter because this will allow for more feel and control. For larger line diameters, it'll take more effort to spool onto your reel but will provide added strength – which is generally needed when targeting bigger or more aggressive fish. Don't worry though, there are lines on the market that specialize in both small and large diameters.

Do I want to change fishing line often? If you plan on changing your fishing line each time you go out then it's best to pick an abrasion resistant material like Spectra or Dyneema (both made by DuPont). This material is a very small diameter and very strong, which for a new angler is a great line to replace the typical monofilament fishing line. It's also low stretch so it doesn't interfere with catching fish.

Do I want color in my line? Fishing lines are available in many different colors, some come pre-colored while others you can dye yourself. There are a variety of reasons why you might want to pick a colored line, mostly having to do with the fact that it'll be easier for you to see than the typical clear fishing line. If your water is particularly cloudy or dark then I'd recommend picking a line that is closer to the color of the water so as not to lose it.

What's the best fishing line for a new angler? If you're a new angler, I'd recommend going with a low stretch monofilament material because this is the most sensitive and forgiving of any type of fishing line. Also, go with a clear or lightly colored body (if your water is dark). If you're targeting multiple types of game fish, I'd recommend going with a line that is designed to work for different fishing conditions because matching the proper line will make your fishing experience much more enjoyable.

What is a spinning reel good for?

  Fishing reels come in different sizes, shapes, and styles. A spinning reel is a great option because it can be used for both saltwater or freshwater environments. The spinning reel is lightweight and compact so it won't get in your way when you are out on the water. This means that it's easy to bring with you everywhere! Spinning reels also allow you to control how much line is on the spool by using a clutch mechanism which will help you avoid tangles while at sea. They're easier to use than other types of reels too, so they are perfect for beginners who are just starting out fishing!
