For my main rig, I've always stuck with Berkley Trilene...I guess I've never thought of toying with success. I prefer light/ultra-light gear, so I stick with 4lb test. I'm sure some of the newer lines out ther would work quite well, but I've never tried them.
As for my trolling rig, I use 30lb SpiderWire. Strong, extremely abrasion resistant, and it doesn't deteriorate. On this rig I use a lighter flurocarbon leader, so the line doesn't distract the fish. and if it breaks, I don't loose my diver. I've noticed that the biggest problem with SpiderWire, is that it is very visable. It also doesn't have much stretch, so I also use a rubber snubber to add a little shock absorbtion.
It will be interesting to see everyones prefs on line. Nice question Tomegun.
