About this deal

The loaded is a decent line but it's less supply, takes a set (coiling), and doesn't deal with twist as well as the standard XT imo.

Another thing that you’ll notice about the Berkley Connect CM90 Mono is its impressive casting properties. If you’re someone who wants to target the water at the extremes of your venue – whether that’s the far side margin or the open waters – then this mono is the perfect addition to your angling arsenal. The cast-ability of this line was something that the team worked hard to achieve and this line ensures that you’re able to target whichever area of your venue that you desire, giving you the ultimate bankside versatility. Well I fish in waters with a lot of Norfolk reeds. The CM90 isn't touched by them at all where other lines I have tried get rather frizzy. My experience - can't comment on yours. I use it in 8, 15 & 18. Easily the limpest, memory free line I have used. Sinks really well, very abrasion resistant. It certainly doesn't feel wiry to me.Hmm mm... started spooling it up and noticed any kinks stay kinked.. tying knots pigtailed badly.. not happy with it so took it off. I found it XT an awesome line, just doesn't sink all that well. If I was looking for mono for casting distance it would be that

I want a bit of a workhorse line, don't need to cast too far, needs to be tough, and not get all twisted up so hydro tuff 15lb fits the bill.. arrived today, looks nice off the spool. What reminded me of this line was fishing with my father in law last weekend and I was helping him out as he doesn't fish that often. Of course! Decades of producing lines for the UK market means that Berkley knows exactly what we want. CM70 is a dark, muddy-brown colour, which blends in exceptionally well over many lakebed types, while CM90 is a classic weedy green colour which blends in over, well, weed… and loads of other stuff! CM90 is a high grade line designed specifically with the modern carp angler in mind. It has high abrasion resistance, added density to increase sink rate and a supple, smooth profile to maximise long distance casting.Just a bit of a heads up for fans of the excellent (but impossible to get hold of for a while) CM90. Just wondered if there was an wonder line thats come into light the past year or so, (which there never is, just the same recycled or tweaked) also wondered what had happened to technium... Definitely upped my catch rate during the day on pro distance instead of cm90 dunno if its the colour? Want something supple like cm90 tho. Was thinking maybe esp synchro xt loaded. Fishing close on intimate waters, so need a gd sinking line. What b.s is everyone liking so much.I tried this line and did not really get on with it,it felt wiry and seemed to stand out in the water

As with all lines, ignore the BS and go by the diameter. I’ve used the .38 rated as 15lb in the UK. Will clearly break much higher than 15lb but does behave well for a .38 line and I found it to be tough and cast pretty well for a heavy-ish mono You just get people recommending what they use and they have no idea of the properties of what they are using. If it's pretty clear of obstructions then the 12lb is lovely, this year had to step up to 15lb xm because of zebra mussels, it's quite wiry but is very tough.Can anyone advise if the .30mm / 16lb is a reliable breaking strain rather then over rated (not as strong as 16lb)? Interesting about the CM90, I’m on the Trent which is low and clear and I can’t buy a bite in the daytime, not a single one in 9 days this season. I had 20-odd fish last weekend (Barbel, Bream, Chub and Carp) and every one was between 9pm and 5am. The Berkley Connect CM70 Mono is dark in colour – a colour the team has named Muddy Brown for obvious reasons. As you might expected from a line name like this, this line is ideal for use in any venue where the base of the venue is dark and muddy in colour. This is also an ideal line for use in deeper venues, when the light finds it hard to penetrate right through to the lake bed. This allows the line to turn practically invisible through the water, ensuring that you won’t be spooking even the most nervous of fish. What’s more, this Berkley Connect CM70 Mono is also exceptionally abrasion resistant. Friction wearing down patches on your line is one of the biggest causes of line failure out there. In fact, you can have the strongest line in the world but if it isn’t abrasion resistant then it won’t last you five minutes on the bank. Fishing line undergoes friction at every stage of the angling process, whether that is when you’re reeling in (running the line through the line guides) or casting out (with the line whipping off the reel). Although you can invest in carp rodswith low friction guides and reelswith low friction spool lips, eliminating all friction in these scenarios is impossible. However, with a line that offers this kind of abrasion resistance, you can be confident that it won’t let you down when you need it the most and it significantly reduces your chances of line failure in intense carp fishing scenarios.
