    i agree with Welshbouy, i use Berkley Ironsilk 17lb b.s. and find it to be a fine quality copolymer line, initially i found it difficult to tie knots in it due to the ultra smooth coating.Very abrasion resistant and a bit expensive but class clobber all the same, as far as i'm aware it's available in green or smoke/grey.
