When does this product work best: Anywhere i will take this setup anywhere and be fearless.

a. If I am not careful casting into the wind the line gets caught on its self when coming off the spool on the cast and pulls coils instead of unwinding off the spool.
b. Some times if the line does not get reeled on the spool tight when working a lure, when you cast the line tries to pull some coils off the spool instead of just unwinding off on the cast.
c. For me fireline does this the least of these three lines, however Fire Line will twist up some before the other two. All of these line work great on bait casaters my preference being 6/30 or 10/50 Spider Wire. TopWater
I find the 20# pretty much the minimum needed, as it's very thin and I love the stuff on my 4 Megalite 4000's. Have caught everything from specled trout to snook, redfish, bonefish, permit, tarpon and sharks on it. Even dolphin offshore.
The 10# is a little too brittle and VERY thin, can creep between the roller & frame on a spinner. If using 10#, a flexible rod is best.
I have the 50# on Ahab 20's, International 16S', Calcutta 700's. Great for sailfish, striped marlin, yellowfin, big dolphin, tarpon, sharks...
I have the 30# on TLD 15's, Calcutta 400's. Works great!
