    I'd like some help with mono line please!!

    Hey all,
    I have not used mono line in years. This year I am thinking about introducing it back into the line-up for top waters etc. I bought some Trilene Maxx (12 lb.) the other night and spooled one of my casting reels with it. VERY difficult to work with. I used alot of KVD L+L on it, and I hope that will make a difference. Anyone use this line on a regular basis?
    Any suggestions on the "best" mono out there is greatly appreciated!!!!!

    I use Maxx in 12lb and think it's pretty manageable line. Maybe not as limp as XL, but really good for a relatively "tough" line. The stuff is really strong, abrasion resistant and casts well. The only other nylon mono I really like is Sufix Seige. I usually don't use the really limp lines like XL because they seem too stretchy and not very durable, but they are easier handling.

    for brute strength and abrasion resistance I use Maxima Ultra Green. over the last several years i have used it almost exclusively because of those traits while salmon and bass fishing. the only time i change over to braid is for heavy cover/grass. Generally will use 12 pound mono.

    I'm a Sufix Elite and Siege fan, Siege is more abrasion resistant.

    i use spiderwire xxx mono. for my topwater.its a very thin really strong and very manageable line.the 20# test is the dia. of most 15-17 # test lines.
    max is just too thick a line for me.
