McCoy Mean Green Line

McCoy has been making premium monofilament line in the United States since 1935. Their research and development has kept the McCoy Mean Green line among the best lines available for generations. Today's Mean Green is a blend of nylons and other co-polymers that produces one of the easiest to use lines for both baitcasters and spinning reels. McCoy Mean Green has very little memory so it lays on the spool well and comes off with virtually no loops or coils. McCoy saturates this line with silicon, which eliminates the water absorption that creates tight coils when the line dries and hinders casting distance. When you handle this line you will feel the natural slickness. In addition, the Mean Green color disappears underwater so the fish will never see what hits them. Try this line on your spinning reels and you'll see the McCoy difference.

I don't know of any disadvantages. It's very durable and abrasion resistant. The copolymers I've used are also more sensitive than any of the monos I've fished.

+10 on the McCoy Mean Green, best mono I have ever fished with and the best by far for topwater IMHO.
Just wish it could be found locally, it can be found all over the place out west.
