By TED KESTING
Two things about casting lines
are axiomatic: 1) The lighter the
line, the better it will cast. 2)
The lighter the lure, the lighter
the line should be.
Many casters still use lines
much too heavy to get the en
joyment they should out of fish
ing. The introduction of spin
ning is helping solve this. In
fresh-water spinning a line over
eight pounds won’t work and it
is dawning on many casting rod
users that a light line will not
only permit better casting, but
will land surprisingly big fish.
Jason Lucas says that in rea
sonably weed-and-snag-free water
for any fish up to the size of
large bass and pike, he nearly
always uses a five-pound line.
Where bass and pike run large,
he will use a 10, sometimes a
15-pound line. The spots are rare
where bass grow so large that a
10-pound line won’t land them.
If — and remember this if—the
user keeps cutting off the worn
front of his line next to the
plug, before it gets weaker than
the rest of the line.
However, in bass fishing and
such, for the beginner or the
man who doesn’t get much prac
tice, Lucas recommends a 12-
pound line.
There are two general types of
lines :the hard-braid water-proof
which is very common, and the
soft-braid nonwater-proof used by
some advanced anglers. The soft
will cast much better with fewer
backlashes, but it will not wear
as well. In heavier tests, the
soft-braid becomes too bulky. The
dividing line is a matter of
taste. Personally, I prefer soft-
braid up to 7% pounds test; hard-
braid from that on up.
Your tackle salesman will
probably look blank when you ask
for soft-braid, untreated casting
line and tell you no such thing is
made. But ask for spinning line
of that type, and you’ll get what
you want.
As for choosing between silk or
nylon, silk casts a shade better
but it won't wear as long. And
a silk line must be removed and
thoroughly dried after each day’s
fishing or it deteriorates. Nylon
need, never be removed and dried.
But you must watch that it
doesn’t wear out the rod guides
because rough guides will ruin
the line.
