Insight GR60 Line

Insight GR60 Line

Description

By the name Insight you will know that this product comes from the Leslies of Luton range of tackle. The line is marketed by Gardener throughout the country as well as Leslies.

GR60 is made in the States exclusively for Leslies and is available in two colours, green and clear, offering breaking strains of 6, 8, 10, 12 and 15 pound test.

In Use

I have used GR60 for 5 years in every breaking strain available and found it to be reliable in every aspect from snag fishing to trundling.

GR60 does twist but then again all lines do and GR60 is no worse than any other line - a bit better in fact. A few casts with a Gardener Spin Doctor will put things to right again should this bother you.

It is not a low diameter line, so breaking at the strike is not an issue as I have found on some modern mainlines. Niether does it dramatically degrade due to sunlight. This was the main reason for trying GR60 as my previously preferred mainline was prone. So paranoid was I that I loaded an old Baitrunner spool with 10lb GR60 and left it on a window sill. Five years later and it is still breaking at 10lb when tested.

Conclusion

As reliable and consistent in manufacture as line comes. Tough as old boots and for a barbel line that is a good thing.

I said before that this product has not let me down ever. What more can I say other than I own and use no other type of mainline monofilament?

Yes that good.

Cost

£17.99 for a quarter lb spool in either green or clear.

At present Leslie's are promoting the clear version with a 2 for the price of one offer.
