I've tried braid and fluorocarbon on my spinning reels and I don't like either one. I am going to stick with mono (or copolymer.)

So, my question is...

what is your recommendation for the mono with the least amount of stretch?

Thanks in advance.

Just my opinion of course but if you are going to go mono, you can't beat Berkley Trilene Sensation. It works really well for me and the strength will surprise you. Again, just my opinion and I bet someone will recommend one that costs three times as much. Try it, I bet you will like it. IF you do and you hate it, I would like to hear your feedback.


Good Fishing and God Bless

If you Google search “mono fishing line stretch test” you will find the test details and results on another website.

Trilene XT was the least stretchy mono that he tested
Followed by Suffix Seige and then Trilene XL

The least stretchy copoly that he tested
Yozuri Hybrid, then Pline CX premium, then Maxima Treazure

I’ve tried all the lines above except Suffix Seige.
I enjoyed fishing with all of them


Of note: the six lines above (when dry) stretched less that his least stretchy fluorocarbon.
There were several lines that snapped under his test conditions (they were all fluorocarbon lines)

Thanks for the responses. I got another recommendation for Sensation so I ordered a spool. i'm going to pick up some Trilene XT on my next trip to Walmart or Academy. Thanks again.
