Mattb, do you have a way of accurately measuring your 30# test for me?

The best I could do is lifting a 30lb weight. From my understanding, this isn't very scientific.

I was referring to the diameter.

I can eyeball it! I could maybe have someone with a magnifying glass look at it.

I have several samples of line around and a high quality micrometer, but I doubt that even a micrometer measurement would yield any results with much meaning. That might even be the problem. It could be that there is no industry standard for measuring line diameter.

Here's an interesting article that I just found as I was researching for any measurement standards:

Features - Fishing Line Testing

Received some 30# white. It is measuring at .014"/ .35mm. Same as 50# PowerPro.

Maybe we can get some more measurements so that people might know what to order/expect.

Hope this is helping some.

Any updates on the T&E

I've purchased a new digital scale with peak hold. Anyone interested?
