I am often bemused ( is it an age thing) by manufacturers stipulating the recommended maximum line bs for a particular rod. Drennen for example on their ultralights recommend line to a maximum of 4lb bs or .16mm. This can be a contradiction in that some line is one but not the other ie 4lb bs but not .16mm!
I initially thought that it was the diameter of the eyes which determined this and recognised you wouldn't use 15lb bs line on an ultralite rod designed for Roach.
What would be the diasdavatage in having line which was say 6lb bs and .20mm ie marginally greater in the above example?
I struggle with really thin light lines; i cannot see them for a start!
