Berkley Trilene XT, Low-Vis Green, 12lb 5.4kg Monofilament Fishing Line

Berkley makes 3 lines in their Trilene X* series and I love them all for different reasons. Berkley Trilene XL is a great, pliable and very limp line that will give you great distance on your casts. The drawback is that if you're bumping off of rocks or hitting the trees, it will get nicks and abrasions in it fairly quickly so it won't last long. Then you have Berkley Trilene XL Armor Coated. Truly the best of both worlds as It stands up to more abuse but isn't as stiff as the XT version. I purchased the XT version this time simply because the XL didn't come in the spool size that I wanted. That being said, the XT is a fine line that won't quite give you the casting distance of the XL or XL Armor Coated, but will last indefinitely even when you're throwing in rough terrain. This line, the XT is still an excellent casting line and you have the side benefit that it will take a butt kicking and still not let you down. I am a fishing guide in Virginia and in the early spring when the larger fish are more common while we're throwing heavy spinners and beating the daylights out of the line, I go for the XT. It's a great all around line and it won't let you down- I can honestly say that it never has let me down and I've been using it for years.
