hi uptider,
i use either daiwa tournament or ultima red ice.the daiwa is probably the best but the red ice is about half the price.
there is a test in one of the magazines recently and both the above lines came out o.k

hi uptider I use braid a lot, but sometimes change over to mono then i will use Iron silk its great line very strong , I use it for the shore as well, I did an experement I tied a spider hitch in both ends hooked them to a scales and 20lb broke at 31lb not bad a.

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.
