Paulywood Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I started using Cortland exclusively last year just because the sheath seems to be woven tighter than Mason and therefore easier to tie. Haven't tried the Woodstock. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nailer Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I've always used Masons, with good results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotdog71 Posted December 22, 2009 Share Posted December 22, 2009 I used Mason my first year then switched over to Cabelas brand. It is much cheeper and has been just as reliable for me. I've used their non-lead line as well and have been very pleased. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tltorrice Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I have also used the Cabelas brand with good luck. Then last summer I needed to respool one of my rods and bought some at a shop in Manistee, I don't remember the brand. It was thicker even though it was 27#. I had to remove a bunch of backing to make it all fit on my reel. I don't know if you guys have noticed any difference in the thickness or not??

Line Dancin Posted December 23, 2009 Share Posted December 23, 2009 I've used the cabelas brand for quite a few years. It is half the cost and if you open the package and look at the fine print there is masons or cortlans name i cant remember which it is the guy at cabelas showed me that quite a few years ago.
