When I was at the FLW Cup in Hot Springs, Jimmy Houston told me to use Hi Seas Grand Slam Select copoly. He stressed not the regular Grand Slam but the Select. This was in an after seminar conversation. I just blew it off as a sponsor tout. Then when I was in Tulsa for the Classic, I stopped by the Hi Seas booth at the Expo around mid day Friday. They were already sold out of Select with 2 days to go. So when I got home, I ordered a spool of 15# Moss Green from TW (they are sold out as of now). Inexpensive (300 yds for $8.00), much less memory than Big Game, great cast ability, solid hooksets & excellent knot strength. It's on all of my casting reels now including the 20# on my swimbait gear.
Less gritchin', more fishin'

He said budget friendly. No better value or performance than good ol' Trilene Big Game monofilament. Buy the bulk spool in your favorite pound test. I like 15# line for most applications. I no longer use Big Game, but still consider it to be the best all around value in fishing line. +1

Big Game is hard to beat, I'm trying Suffix on one rod now and I'm liking it.
If it was easy, everyone would do it

T Line by Mason.
Buy it online.
The best I've ever found.
"..The pleasantist angling is to see the fish
Cut with her golden oars the silver stream,
And greedily devour the treacherous bait.

P Line CXX but go the next test down from what you'd normally use. If you'd normally use 20 go to 17, 15 to 12,....it's about 40% stronger than the marked number. It does get a little memory but fishing for 5 minutes usually cures that if not then stretch it a bit and use line conditioner.
