Lines

Fishing line is one of those things that looks simple until you start comparing it properly. Ratings can mean different things depending on where it is made, which can make choosing the right one a bit of a minefield. After years of selling different types and materials, I've settled on lines I trust to be consistent and good quality. Have a read through, and ask me before you buy if you're unsure.

Choosing fishing line for lure fishing

Advice from Ben Field, Art of Fishing

As with all fishing lines in reality, it can be quite complex to try and understand the fact that different parts of the world and different factories will have different ways of rating them means that it can be an absolute minefield trying to buy something that isn't exactly right for your preferences or needs.

After years of experience selling many different types, price points and materials of fishing line, I've come to settle on only those that I can trust to be consistent and of high quality.

You'll find other articles on the website about the properties of different fishing lines. Being a lure fishing shop we sell braided main lines, fluorocarbons and occasionally there'll be a copolymer or monofilament line, but all are well suited to lure fishing.
