Re: Drennan Double Strength line question.
The "society" i'm thinking of joining as a rule of a minimum of 10Lb BS line so i wanted some thin stuff for light float fishing.

If Braid is good enough for Chris Yates it's good enough for anyone...!

Robbi, Is the minimum rule for main line. Can you not use a lighter hooklink?

Re: Drennan Double Strength line question.
i've taken low doubles on 5Lb line myself mate but rules is rules, the web site says there are fish to low 20's so i can understand the requirement really and it's not too much to ask.
i'll not be targeting big carp though, i really want the 7Lb + tench that are reputed to lurk in there
but i still have to follow the rules, just in case.
