Lay It On The Line

The quality of your fishing line can be the differance between a good day and a great day on the water, over the past 25 years I have used different fishing line from manufactures that claim to have the best line on the market. Lets be honest alot of manufactures produce line that is sub par and market their product by having fancy packaging, then to get even more anglers buying their product they get a TV host to promote their weak line and when you look at the big picture they are getting paid to promote their line wheather it is garbage or not. A few years ago I went to the Spring Fishing Show in Toronto fed up with using sub par line and was looking for a product that stood up to tournament fishing and weekend trips with minimal problems. That day I ended up talking to a representitive from GAMMA Technologies and after explaining to him my problems with my current line he asked if I would like to try a knot strength test comparing GAMMA line with several other lines. I was surprised to find out the gamma line out preformed trilene, stren, shakespeare and spiderline and purchased a few spools of 8lb Gamma Copoymer line and headed back to Thunder Bay for some field testing. I spent all summer that year fishing GAMMA line in tournaments and convincing anyone that would listen to try this new line, after landing a big northern pike on 8lb line without a leader my fishing partner was convinced to give GAMMA a try.

Gamma has developed fluorocarbon and copolymer lines that have incredible strenth and abrasion resistance with low memory which results in less time fixing your line and more time fishing. Gamma line also gives you more confidence when fishing because you don't have to worry about breaking your line when fishing structure, so you can fish that rock pile you always wanted to try. If you are tired of the same old line give GAMMA a try you might be surprised what you are missing out on.
