No other line delivers this combination of easy handling, castability, super strength, and sensitivity. Stronger than mono, yet it casts farther and handles just as well -- even better, in some situations. FireLine ties easier, makes smoother casts, and stays hassle-free in any weather. Durable, too, as it won't deteriorate over a lifetime, because ultra-light rays, sunlight, and even cold won't affect it.

Great line,
December 11, 2008
By bsimm78from Flower Mound, Tx
"I love Fireline. It casts a mile, there is no line memory and it's very strong. It doesn't stretch like mono does. You want to make sure you have good line guides on your rod or it will cut into them. I've been using it on all my reels for years. It has cut a small grove in the bail of my ultralight reel, but I don't care. This line is worth it's weight in gold"

THE BEST POSSIBLE INVESTMENT IN FISHING,
September 4, 2008
By Speerzyfrom Guelph, Ontario, Canada
"when you figure how much most of us here spend on fishing, why wouldn't you use the best line available even at twice the cost. then there's THAT one fish, and when she's in pictures with you; ask yourself "why don't I have this line on all my gear?" this is just an ongoing review of my favourite line. one piece of advice, due to fireline's "sharpness" I like to add a small piece of soft braid between fireline and a floro leader"

Best Line For Trolling,
June 16, 2008
By packfanfisherfrom Shorewood, Illinois
"I only use this when trolling. It is very durable. The reason I dont use it while casting is because it loops up in the spoil easier and when it knots up, there is no use trying to detangle it. For trolling, 5 stars. But for anything else, mono is your better bet."

"I used this line on all of my rods. I have 10lb test on my Shimano Citica baitcaster. 10lb on my mitchell spinning reel, and 8lb crystal on my quantum. Crystal is very good no tangling at all.
On a fishing trip I dragged in a huge fallen tree and I even caught a trolling motor on 10lb test. I use that trolling motor to this day."

worst line i ever bought,
March 13, 2008
By jwfisherfrom louisiana
"i believe this line is junk! i have 4 of the bantam curados i fish with and they are the best pieces of equipment i have. never had a problem with them until i spooled this line. it digs into itself worse than any braided line, or stays spooled very loosely,or backlashes easily when you try to pitch with it. i have been bass fishing for a long time and this is without a doubt the worse i ever fished with. its already taken off my reels."

Highly Recommended!!!,
March 12, 2008
By MShelton048from Antioch, TN
"I have been using Berkley Fireline for both Bass and Crappie now for about 3-4 years. I was immediately impressed with the ultra-thin diameter and no-memory features of the line. I was introduced to it on a float trip in an East Tennessee river for Smallmouth Bass (Brown Fish) and could not believe the strength and abrasion resistance that we encountered from various types of objects like boulders, trees and the like along the way using only 6lb test (it is very difficult to break and like another reviewer wrote, it will cut your hand and fingers). Shortly after that trip I switched all of my Crappie rods over to it and now find myself regularly bending jig hooks out of fish attractors all over the lake. When I put it on my baitcasters (6lb test) it was fine for a while and then "snap" as I watched a $6.00 spinner bait sail through the air on a cast with no line attached and it landed in Percy Priest Lake! After two more attempts to cast a spinner into likely territory, and two more lost $6.00 spinner baits, I decided to quit and go home. I immediately got on Berkely's website and filed a complaint. They recommended that all casting be done with a minimum of 14lb test if you are going to use it that way and 'walla' no more throwing away expensive baits. So far that has worked for me and I have both the gray and the green and can't wait to try the new Crystal color this Crappie and Bass season.... You won't go wrong with buying this line and also, I love being able to feel every little strike. On another note, Berkley is also producing a worm rod for this line that I found and I highly recommend them also. They come with metal guides and now I can cast a "Country Mile"!"

Not For Everyone.,
March 11, 2008
By HowardBfrom Arizona
"The line is certainly strong, but has few other redeeming features.
It may cast better than braided super lines, but not as well as monofilament.
The sound and feel of this line going through the guides is almost as cringe-inducing as nails on a chalkboard.
Tying a knot that will hold is still a problem. Even using the knots recommended in the packaging doesn't guarantee the knot will hold for any length of time.
In the end, I've gone back to monofilament exclusively. It may not be as strong as the super lines, but, hey, that's why reels have drags."

The best line ever,
March 8, 2008
By Shiverfrom Mass.
"I pulled a 15' long 5" Dia. tree limb up out of the water. I was using a jig and hooked this branch. Never broke my line, just bent my hook really bad. I have been using Fire Line for 5 years now and love it. If you follow instructions you will never have any line slippage or lose a knot. I have never lost a fish due to line failage. Fire Line is the best."

Strongest Line,
March 1, 2008
By pyrofrom IL
"This is the strongest line out there. I've been using it for 3-4 yrs now and have not had it break with a fish on. I strongly recommend this to anyone who doesn't want to lose a fish. There's only 1 problem... if you're fishing live bait split shots tend to easily fall off."

12 years and still love it,
February 9, 2008
By toph2ofrom Atlanta, Ga
"I've been using this line for 12+ years and still haven't ever found anything I like better. I've tried a bunch, too, but I keep coming back to this. I like going with a smaller diameter, usually the 10 lb test (4 lb diameter) and it really does cast a mile. As another reviewer said, you'll straighten a hook before you break this line, and it's true, I've broken more than a couple hooks without the line breaking. I primarily use the smoke, though I have reels with both the green and the crystal on them. I was hoping the crystal would've been a little more translucent, in gin-clear water with line shy fish I'll still go back to mono sometimes, but I find myself hating it, I've become so spoiled with being able to set the hook with a simple flip of the wrist. ZERO stretch on this stuff, making hooksets a breeze. Ultra sensitive as well. I actually like when the smoke color wears off a bit, maybe it's all in my head but I think it makes the line a bit more stealthy in clearer water. I'll use the 8 lb test on my ultralights and 20 lb (still only 8 lb diameter) when I go out for redfish or speckled trout."

Very reliable,
January 17, 2008
By osloanfrom Saint Simons Island, GA
"I use to use power pro like it was going out of style, about 2 years ago I switched to Fireline and I have not bought any other line since. All I use is the 8lb test smoke. I have fireline on everyone of my poles. From freshwater to saltwater, from Largemouth and bream to 30 lb redfish my 8lb test firel;ine does the trick. If I want to finesse the cast or send up a hail mary my fireline will take me where ever I want it to. As long as they keep making it, I'll keep buying it."

tough line,
January 12, 2008
By teerexfrom iowa
"Don't know about the "crystal" version, but the smoke is great line. I made hundreds of casts this summer at a resivoir spillway. Tons of rocks, very swift current. I caught twice as many fish as those around me. I believe the super sensitivity and castabitity of this line helped greatly. I never had to replace it, cast just as good the last time I used it as the first time."
