I have been using P-Line products for many years now and can attest to the strength of their line.
Short story:
Last year I bought a leader roll of 12# test to use for jigging up flounder and rock fish up at Neah Bay. In the middle of sorting through flounders I caught a small 24 inch halibut. I released that fish and thought "Wow, that was fun".
On the next drop I got a hard thump that was followed by the unmistakable whoomp whoomp run of a descent halibut. I just laughed thought I would have some fun and see how long I could play the fish with no expectation of landing the it on 12# leader.
After about 15 minutes and sleigh ride to deeper water it slowed down and I started gaining line on the fish. Luckily I had a salmon net on board and managed to land the flattie. I could only smile at how ridiculous it was to actually be able to bring that fish up. I took some pictures and release the fish due to it being a closed day for halibut.
Heck this year I may try it with a Ned rig and 6# test lol.
Line is only a tiny fraction of the gear that P-Line produces. Fresh water or salt water. They make a staggering amount of lures, tools, and tackle that you can find at https://p-line.com/
Thomas sent the Shootout 10 (300 yard) spools of their Hi-Vis Fluorescent Green Fluorocarbon Coated CX 6 LB Test line.
Thank you P-Line for another great donation.
