New line that replaces Nanofil!! Finally...

[BearLakeFishGuy]

"The old Nanofil would kinda shred and become frazzled when it went through rod eyelets that were frozen."  "Kinda shred..." is an understatement, and it didn't make any difference whether the eyes were frozen, or it was the peak of summer.  I loved how Nanofil would cast, but after buying a big spool of it, and after experiencing endless frustration with it shredding, I made a trade with Pat to get rid of it.

I used Nanofil for almost 15 years and did not have any major shredding issues with it and I used the hell out of it on baitcasters and spinning gear alike.  But as Tubedude said, a rough line guide (any of them) will cause any line to develop nicks/shred.  The ONLY time I had an issue with Nanofil fraying (besides a broken tip-top guide...twice) was when my rod guides froze with ice and I foolishly tried to reel the line through them.  When I used to use mono I would change out the top 6-10 feet of line regularly due to it fraying.  You just couldn't see it like you could with Nanofil.  This new stuff doesn't absorb water and I have yet to see any fraying.  Been using it 3 weeks now.
