Guest Barbus maximus Posted June 9, 2001 Strong and reliable but a poor diameter to breaking strain ratio. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Graham E Posted June 9, 2001 Barbus, the Maxima b/s is well understated. You can use 6lb as 8lb etc. It is a great main line, esp for feeder fishing but the hooklink should be a low diameter line such as TEAM ENGLAND or my favourite Ultima Extra.

Guest phil hackett Posted June 9, 2001 Originally posted by kevthebev:How do you rate Maxima line for waggler & feeder fishing ?. You can tow battleships on 8LB Maxima! The best line I've ever use! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Keith Posted June 9, 2001 It might not be the most "high tech" line in the world, but you can get a man out on 3lb Maxima! Brilliant stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest Nightwing Posted June 9, 2001 From what I have seen, it is second only to P-Line (regional line company, West coast U.S.A) in raw strength and durability, and that second may be a first on any given day! P-line does cast a bit better, and has less memory, but Maxima may well have an edge in abrasion resistance. All in all, a cracker of a line. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest kevthebev Posted June 10, 2001 The reason I ask, I saw an ad for any 3 spools of Maxima for less than £10, I ask my local tackle dealer if he could do the same deal and his reply was, if any one can sell it for that price it must be some foreign crap, he also says nobody uses maixima anymore and tried to sell me some line at £12 a spool, so yes Matt that`s is what I wanted to hear.
