One brand of line I haven't seen mentioned on this thread is FOG - about 40-50 years ago they churned out a whole range of lines from 1.5lbs through 25lbs bs - all on the same pale blue spool - but the line quality was all over the place. You'd find the 3lb line was fine, soft and supple but the 4lb was stiff and like a coiled spring! The lines seemed to go like this through it's range - where depending on the strength - you could have a really good line or a total dud!
I think they re-launched the brand again about 20 years ago - but the damage was done as far as I was concerned!
Funnily enough Greenie I bought these a couple of weeks ago. They looked 50 or 60'syish. I think I paid about 50p in an old shop. I am a real sucker for anything like that; I just cant help myself.
