Thanks for another good test. The good FG knot % was easy to spot. This line seems OK for ~PE1 - may pick someup if I see it on special.
Great test !!!!!!
Thank you!
Great test, thanks ! You need to start testing batches of the multiple production runs of the same braid to show which manufacturer is consistently the best :) Wonder if the smaller labels would fair better? Ocean, Tasline maybe?
That would be interesting absolutely. I have spoken to one of the manufacturers about this and a lot of it comes down to the quality of the materials they receive from the manufacturer. The raw UHMWPE thread that gets turned into braid has a target strength, and each batch is plus or minus from that. So even if the braid manufacturer does exactly the same thing every time the lines can be stronger/weaker between batches due to raw materials. I also know for sure that at least one braid producer will discard milles of raw line if it's not up to spec.
Nice result (except Abrasion tesst) And VERY strage issue with #1.2 / # 1 diametr.
I belive this is nice line for far away casting with leader. Or for sea vertical jigging. Not for fresh water jigging.
Daiwa, at Australian site, write about silicon coating and gives the recomendation for use mentioned above.
everytime i went to test the feel of line in shop, i has this inconsistent thickness feel in hand, for instance i hand felt sufix 832 10lb feel thicker than 15lb, i always felt wrong but this test proves my suspicion all time long, you can't trust the label
Yep your right, I have found this a few times on various lines where a line that is advertised as thicker and stronger is actually thinner and weaker than another in the same range. very odd to say the least.
Can you do Gosen x8 Roots 0.6?
Great vid. Interesting differences from the PE1.2!
I'm also an FG Wizz user. From this and some of your other videos it seems that the braid is always breaking above the FG knot? Do you think that's a result of abrasion caused when tying the knot? Otherwise I can't think of why the breaking strain would be different, since the knot seems intact.
Yep correct, the FG will (should) always break right at the top of the knot as this is where the mainline is under the most concentrated stress as its compressed under the tag end knots and is getting twisted to start its wraps. Abrasion may have an impact but its hard to say. If you have followed the video put out by FGWizz on how to tie it, its actually a really bad way to do it as it will kill the strength of the knot. They say to use the leader tag end to do a half hitch over the braid tag and main line (which transfers to the braid). Never knot the mainline, do all of the knots and hitches in the tag end only. As soon as you knot the mainline you reduce the strength by a huge amount. I started off doing it this way (followed their vid) and couldn't work out why my knots were breaking so low. I then tried knotting the tag end only and bingo.
@@thelinelaboratory Oh wow, good to know - thanks!
So just do the wraps on the wizz and all knots with the tag end.
Thoughts on melting the end of the fluorocarbon? I'm guessing it's unnecessary and risky based on how the knots break in your videos.
@jcpescamais yep exactly. Follow their video but when they do the 2 knots with the leader, one in the tag and one in the main, only do the tag side. As for burning, I generally don't bother. Bulbing the end of the leader may help if your knots slip off but if that happens your doing something else wrong. Plus it's risky. The braid is super sensitive to heat.
@@thelinelaboratoryyea I agree, I do the rizuto finish right after the fg and thats it. Tension it and trim the leader. Never had an issue even with 30kg drag locked up on pe6.
Hello sir . Maybe u can try Shimano Pitbull 8+ Line . Thanks before
I am wondering Daiwa tournement evo + compare with expedition
Good question, haven't tested that one as yet
Why do you think the abrasion is different than the 15 lbs one you did?
The results are pretty different between the two
Its quite odd - I am really not sure and I would hate to speculate, but it is interesting....
¿Cómo es posible aue PE 1.0 es mas grueso que PE 1.2? ¿Que há pasado? ¿Son hilos auténticos o falsificaciones?
Unfortunately your website braid table is unusable on phone. Tried chrome and firefox.
What is the best 4-strand braid in your opinion?
maxcuatro. They use quality materials on heavier lines so it has significantly higher tensile strength than most other manufactures. Doesnt really matter under 40# but 40# and above is where MC shines.
@karlkobler218 that's interesting, I have heard the opposite for some lines where the heavier ones use more materials, so in order to keep the cost the same as the lighter lines they use inferior quality filaments. As a result the heavier lines have a lower tensile strength compared to the lighter ones.
Please, do Asari FCX Fluorocarbon, i think this is best fluorocarbon for good price.
I have seen quote a few of the Asari lines here in retail stores, everything is well priced. Doesn't appear as though the FCX is available here though.
Thanks for response sir 👍
Please test a new kastking Shield. a new line came out this year.
Not available in my country 😞

What the thinnest yet strongest line you’ve tested
There is no Holy Grail of lines. The thinnest will not be the strongest. I would suggest you look over the website and pick an attribute that's important to you, lets say a diameter of around 0.15mm. Look through all the lines around that diameter and pick the one with the highest breaking strain.
