“NanoFil is great! It slides through the guides with little drag and has no stretch. It’s also strong, low-diameter and handles big fish with ease.”

Don Mays, Phoenix, AZ


“This line is durable and easy to cast. It lets you feel even the lightest strikes.”

I would like to give this line a try, especially for panfish in our area. It would be great if it came in heavier lb tests too, like 20, 30, and 50 lb lest for trout and salmon fishing.

I would love to fry this line. Seen it on tv and fell in love. The line I have now would not compare.

I bought this line not sure what to expect but heard good things about it. Very easy to feel bites and cast into the wind but because it's so light the wind has a tendency to take it. Like other lines it needs a bit of tending after casting to help prevent overruns. After a few days of fishing I started to notice a bit of fraying in the last few feet and only broke off once while trying to take a fish off. I have it on a 7' med-light for pan fish and love it for casting tiny lures. I tie ALL my snaps and hooks on using the fishing fool knot and haven't had any problems with the knot slipping out. I really like this line but by buddy that I fish with bought some too and isn't very impressed.

i bought this line a few weeks ago.. Its a great casting line.. Don't recommend using it for bait an sinkers.. break lots of line that way.. always having to cut off 5-10 ft sections because it gets frayed alot.. I took the line off my pole today cuz i lost 4 lures in a row.. but here in a couple of weeks I plan on purchasing more of it in a slightly stronger test.. i was using 6 lb.. think im gonna go with 8 or 10 this time...

i just put this on my ultra light pole last week in the 3# variety. it casts like no other line i've ever used. but, a split shot wouldn't stay in place and it got frayed every ten to fifteen minutes resulting in retie or loss of bait. either way that is a waste of fishing time, and has been taken off my pole and replaced. do not recommend unless you really like retying.

WOW this line looks amazing. I love to ultralight fish and this line would be perfect for it. 4lb is what i normally use and i can land most of the fish i catch with out it breaking. Wonder how well it stands up against the other lines?

I saw this in a Bass pro catalog, ever since I've wanted to try it for river and stream fishing for trout, 4 pound test would be nice!

I tried it also. Like the other comments, it frays pretty quick. The castabillity is amazing. I trout fished with two buddies recently. I could outcast them by a third! But, they outcaught me three to one. The reason I believe is that the line was so brilliantly white. I finally took a black marker and colored the last 10 feet or so above my lure and began to catch more fish. They need to make it in a green color. I finally took it off my reels. If they come out with green, I may try it again.

please send this to me in 10lb test. I have 10lb test from omniflex and is horrible on line memory, the line memory is high. So please send me one, thanks.

too expensive and feels like floss. the casting distance is a 10, but breaks off very easy when snag, even on a tree, it'll snap in your 1st attempt. never buying it again, good for clear topwater rigs only.

Superb line. Need to use double polamar knot as line is very slippery. Strongly recommend this line which I use both river fishing in Potomac River and lake fishing in Cananda. I always use a swivel to fluorocarbon leader.

Does everything well except knot strength. If you tie directly to lure or hook you need to retie after every fish. If you push it you will lose fish and lures. Also does not last multiple seasons like braid. use a leader and you can fish it half a day but retie the leader after 6 hours of fishing.
