[quote=Deepsees]Coming in late on the thread... I used spectron line on my traps... it is an extremely strong fiber and easy to tie. While this is true... pay attention to the language concerning the sheath covering the spectron strands. The sheath prevents rubbing of the strand... a very important role. While you can pick up a truck with 3/8th inch spec.... it does not like to be rubbed. I did not pay much attention to the sheath despite seeing it going bad. Long story short... I took a dip very suddenly one day, broke my tiller. Had I not held tight to my main sheet line... my 5.7 would have left me stranded.
When I redux my traps I will go to stainless steel set to length... it sucks seeing your boat leaving you.
