Just thought I'd let yall know that I fish tested Rapala Finesse
8lb. test and it is awesome. Low memory, excellent casting, good knot strength and My partner and both caught 2 muskyson it last Sunday. We landed them both so I would have to say that it's pretty tough line.

We haven't caught any eyes for 2 wks. WHY? Snow Melt ?
We are fishing NE PA and we usually murder 'em. Any IDEAS???

Sounds good. Is it actually made by Rapala or does someone else make it and put the Rapala label on it? If Rapala doesn't make it, who does?

Can you comment on abrasion resistance of the line??

So far I've only used it 3 or 4 times, I would say it is quite resistant. We fished it in some pretty rocky areas with a lot of structure, and had no breakage. I would compare it to Trilene XL But diameter is thinner.
