Trilene XL vs. Trilene sesnithin for eyes?

[slick2526]

Hi what do you think would work better for walleye in MN? what are the good and bad sides of both the lines?

[REW]

In a word -- flexability verses stretch.
Trilene of the same lb test has a bit more stretch and is a bit more flexable than sensithin.

Conversely -- the opposite is true for sensithin.

I believe that the clear sensithin since it is advertised as more of a coplaner line - has these inherent properties.
Also sensithin clear is a bit more clear than trilene clear -- if that is important.

For rigging -- I tend to use trilene, and for jigging and deep water applications, I tend to use sensithin.

However, the differences are small - and either line of the appropriate test works well.

Take care

I prefer sensithin for lake erie drifting. I often have a lot of line out and like the thinner dia. and low strech. I use 10 lb test and it has a tendency to unspool and tangle more easily when using light rigs, ie 1/32 - 1/16 jigs or other light tackle. but for drifting spinners I definitly like the sensithin
