1. According to the thickness of the fishing line

How choose a fishing line depends on the target fish and the fishing water. Generally speaking, when fishing small fish, choose thin line, and when fishing for large fish, except for the case of thin line and big fish, generally choose a thicker fishing line. The thickness of the fishing line is related to the tensile force it can withstand. For details, see the figure below:


2. According to the quality of the fishing line

Fire burning: When buying carbon wire, you can cut a small piece of carbon wire and burn it on the fire. The fishing wire with high carbon content will automatically go out after leaving the fire, leaving black carbon ash after burning. . The opposite is true for low carbon content.


●Looking at the thread: First, check whether the indicators on the package meet the standards, and then take it out to see whether the fishing line is shiny, except for the braided thread, and then look at the color.


● Comparison: Find a standard product produced by a big brand for comparison, and observe from the number of wire diameters, whether it is the same or almost no difference; if the difference is too large, it can basically be concluded that it is a copycat product.


● Touch the line: feel on the hand, feel whether the surface is even and smooth and whether the thickness is even. Next, squeeze it with your hand to see the recovery of the fishing line after being stressed. The faster the recovery speed is, the better.


●Manual inspection: straighten the fishing line, rub it in a slightly sharp place, and those that are quickly bifurcated or fluffed are inferior goods. Next, take a small section and then tie the knot to see the tension at the knot. The normal phenomenon is that it has not changed or dropped a little, and the range is within 20%.


3. According to the color of the fishing line

The color of the fishing line still plays a crucial role in sea fishing. Generally speaking, the fishing effect of the white line is not as good as that of the red, yellow, and green fishing line. Many fishermen report that the fishing situation between the two is different. far. This is because fish are more sensitive to colors like yellow, blue, and green, which penetrate deeper into the water more easily.
