    'DECENT LINE AT THE RIGHT PRICE.'
    Strengths:
    Acceptable diameter, strong and cheap to replace.
    Weaknesses:
    Stretchy and a lot of memory.
    Overall:
    A decent line overall but you do have to replace it frequently. At that price you can afford to.

    'NOT CONVINCED.'
    Strengths:
    Cheep!
    Weaknesses:
    Very wirey, can spring of the spool (makes setting up Pike drop-off indicators in wind a pain). Also feels crinkly.
    Overall:
    Sufix Synergy maybe double the price but beets this hands down.

    'GOOD BUDGET LINE'
    Strengths:
    cheap . good in low BS
    Weaknesses:
    quite a lot of stretch , and high memory retention change often to avoid breakages
    Overall:
    a good budget line , better in low BS upto 6lb any higher and you get a lot of line twist because of the high memory retention

    'USE IF FOR TYING UP TOMATOES'
    Strengths:
    cheap,colour,easily avaliable
    Weaknesses:
    breaks for no reason,shiny,springy,doesnt cast well,poor abrasion resistance.
    Overall:
    A line that could be good if only it worked.

    I tried it for a few sessions because of its colour,which was perfect for blending in over a dark bottom.I soon noticed that the line was getting damaged,for some reason i dont know it just started to break well below its stated strengh after only a few sessions.I cracked off on three casts,had it snap on a take.When checking my other spools it had become brittle.

    This line would need to be changed every couple of sessions which makes its cheap price false economy.It is not reliable and I would not even consider it in snaggy conditions.A very poor line which alot of anglerslike.I would not use it if it was free.Back to Berkly Trilene Big Game.

    'GOOD RELIABLE LINE'
    Strengths:
    Good knot strength.
    Excellent Value for money.
    Very reliable.
    Overall:
    I've started using Sensor for most if my fishing. While it's diameter isn't as fine as some pricier lines, it's low cost and reliability more than makes up for it. It may not be the perfect line, but it doesn't have any bad traits. I've used lines that cost three times the price of this that were much worse!

    'GOOD BUT NOT FANTASTIC'
    Strengths:
    Good knot strength, and reasonably supple, doesn’t at all feel wiry like some comparably priced mono’s
    Well priced.
    Weaknesses:
    Line diameter isn’t that great vs. B/S but as a reel line this is hardly a negative.
    Overall:
    Overall cheap and cheerful mono line, does what it sais on the tin.
