line test considerations

[OldTimer]

But at the same time heavier lines are:
- stronger (obviously) - and you will get more lures off snags by being able to straighten the hook
- the extra stretch actually assists in tiring a fish during the fight and in avoiding shock breakage
- can survive better in abrasive conditions, or against slicing or shearing.
- resist line twist a bit more.
- will degrade slower in UV.
- you can see them better (good for old guys......smile)

Each has their ups and their downs................

I use many different strengths.... and pick as I play.
