Billy i was fishing last saturday night and got fed-up of every fish i caught small chub.... not monster barbel ! but every fish hydro-flo line would go like a coil spring ! so it wouldn't lie flat on the river bed...... .
so cut the line remove a couple of feet then re-tie your rig.....
So got bored of that !
On barbel world theres a thread on there talking about line and Rich p said hes been using berkleys big game line and it was good! and backed up by other users too.
So bought some its cheap and after using it last night with no problems after a few fish it still lay flat no coiling up and it seems strong!!!

cheers jamie
