How to choose Fishing Lines For Anglers
Keen anglers are constantly looking for the next
best fishing line to improve their fishing experience. There are many choices of lines that you can purchase but it takes careful consideration to ensure that you are choosing the right type of line for your purpose, method and desired outcome.
Here is how to choose a good fishing line:
1) How to find the right fishing line
There are a large variety of fishing lines available to anglers from different brands. It is best to check for reviews and feedback from other users so you can get a better idea of what type of fishing line to purchase. Some factors that you need to consider when choosing a good fishing line include:
A) Fishing Method
Different methods require different types of lines. For example, if you are fishing with live bait then you need to choose braided line or fluorocarbon as it is less visible underwater. If you are using lures for fishing instead, you can use monofilament line as they have a stretchy property which will provide an enticing action for fish.
B) Fishing Purpose
Fishing lines are made specifically to meet the needs of anglers depending on what they intend to catch and their preferred way of fishing. For example, if you want to fish in open water then you need a heavier line with abrasion resistance. This is because it will be dragged over rocks and sharp objects underwater.
2) Choose the right fishing line depending on your preferred activities
There are various techniques that you can employ when picking out the best type of fishing line for your intended purpose. Here is how to choose the right line:
1) Choosing an Appropriate Fishing Line Type
When choosing a fishing line you need to make sure that it is appropriate for the desired activity. You can choose either monofilament, braid or fluorocarbon for saltwater fishing depending on your purpose. If you want to fish in clear waters then go with fluoro-carbon because it has low visibility underwater. Monofilament is a good choice for fresh water environments because it is inexpensive and easy to handle. Braid can be used both in fresh and saltwater conditions. You just need to check the abrasion resistance of the line before using it in saltwater because braid usually has low abrasion resistance.
2) Choosing the Appropriate Monofilament Line Size
When looking for monofilament line, you need to match the diameter of your fishing line with the pound test. For example, if you are using 8 lb test then use 4 lbs monofilament line up to 15lb test which matches with 6lbs monofilament. If you want stronger lines then go with 7 and 8 lb test and if you want the line to be thinner, choose 5 lbs monofilament or weaker.
3) Choosing the Appropriate Braid Line Size
Braided line is made of multiple strands of fibers braided together. For freshwater fishing, it is best to use 4-8lb braid line as anything lighter than 4lbs will break easily. For saltwater fishing, go with 8-12lb braid line as it can handle the pressure and abrasion from ropes and rocks.
4) Choosing the Appropriate Fluoro-carbon Line Size
You need to match fluoro-carbon line's pound test and diameter with your fishing rod. If you use a light weight pole then go with 4-8lb test fluoro-carbon line. For medium heavy poles, choose 8-10lb fluoro-carbon line and if you are using heavy poles, go with 12lbs or higher as it can handle the pressure from strong fish strikes and it will not break easily like monofilament line.
5) Choosing the Appropriate Braid Line Size
It's important to match your braid line diameter with the pound test of your fishing pole. For example, if you are using an ultralight pole then go with 4-8lb test braid line and for medium weight pole, use 8-10lbs test braid line. Heavy poles should be matched with 10lb and higher test braid lines.
3) Make sure it's the right diameter
Different fishing lines have different diameters depending on their pound test strength. To make sure that your chosen fishing line is right for your need, make sure that it is the appropriate diameter for your fishing line.
4) Check for stretch
Most of the fishing lines out there do not have any stretch which can be dangerous because it can break easily when caught on objects especially rocks and reefs underwater. Some brands like Berkley Trilene Big Game have a small amount of stretch which can increase the lifespan of these fishing lines.
