fish_fishburn Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 Sounds like the perfect line to use as backing for all the cp guys out there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterwolf Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 i tried a spool a few years back but was disappointed because of very high memory , found it hard to work with, tie'n knots an' such. might be a different animal of late, don't know never went back.

Fang Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 The Rapala Tough line is very high memory. Although I've been running 20 lb on my riggers and it as good as my old standby Maxima green If you can get a hold of any of the Finesse line it's much better and at that price it's good for a few trips and then change it out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stern Rules Posted April 10, 2010 Report Share Posted April 10, 2010 Last year they had the tough, finesse and long cast but this year I think it was all finesse and green. I bought a ton of it last year and got more this year but have only really used the 4 lb. line for crappies and haven't had problems yet. Last year they had hardly any 8 lb. but loads this year. I can't speak on the memory issue. From what a few have said here, it's not that good but for $1.99, it's worth a try. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
