On the strength of this thread I have just received two spools of the Dip Chromium Pro in the .148 & .165 gauges as I need a good sinking line. Italiafishing (on the well-known auction web-site) gave fantastic service. Couldn't be happier with them and anticipate visiting them again.
I think that part of the attraction is because they offer stuff that is pretty rare in the UK. 'Spose one doesn't want to be one of the herd and trying things a little different is always attractive.

I've been using the fly leeder. Pretty happy, but getting kinks out isn't as easy As with some line. Good strength to width though.

Do you see what I mean about the spooling BB?
