Customer Reviews for Stren Stren® Magnathin™ Fishing Line - 330 Yards
Stren Stren® Magnathin™ Fishing Line - 330 Yards
Great for targeting line-wary gamefish, Stren's low-visibility Magnathin Line offers an exceptional strength-to-diameter ratio which allows anglers to drop down a line size or two without sacrificing the strength to haul in the fighters. An advanced casting formula makes for super-smooth, long-distance casts. And because Magnathin has such a thin diameter, you can spool up to 50% more line on your reel. 330 yards. Promotes natural lure action Low-visibility Great for targeting line-wary fish Small diameter Exceptional strength-to-diameter ratio Advanced casting formula Super-strong

Best line out there

"I do alot of trout fishing in streams and lakes and this is by far the best line I have ever used. I like to use the 6 lb. test when fishing streams because of the ease of casting and it's durability yet it is only 4 lb. test diameter. I use the 4lb. test when trolling with spinners in various lakes because it's virtually invisible in the water yet strong enough to handle the trout that hammer the baits. I use no other line as I have had great success using The Stren Magna Thin. I highly recomend it."

Review 2 for Stren® Magnathin™ Fishing Line - 330 Yards
Overall Rating:
Good line just not what it is supposed to be
,September 1, 2011
By fishguide
from SW Minnesota
"I have been using the Stren fishing lines since back in the days when the Stren package also said DuPont on it. I always got along very well with the Stren Original.
I bought several spools of the 10# Magnathin last spring and have been using it most of the time this year going fishing just about every day. I have been lucky and have not caught any fish large enough this season to break it, if that is lucky. I had some of it left on a spool so I thought that I would test it myself.
I did this by tying it to small barbells that are supposed to be of a certified correct weight. With the 10# Magnathin I started with a 10# barbell. The line broke before it would even lift one end of this weight.
If you look at specifications of fishing lines you will see that the Stren 10# Magnathin is the average diameter of what would be 7# monofilament for most brands including Stren Original. 7# line is what this 10# Stren Magnathin tested at for me. The 10# Magnathin would lift the 8 lb barbell without breaking but with just a slight bounce the line would snap.
I am not talking about breaking at the knot. I tied knots for these tests that I would also use for fishing. I did not have any line failures at a properly tied knot.
Considering its true strength this is fine line as any Stren product that I have used has been for me. Minimal memory problems and it is nice line to fish with.
As the report with the lab tests that I referred to stated, one must rate and or select the fishing line by the diameter of the line. Not by what the line is supposedly tested at. The report also stated the manufacturers do not test the lines for the so call pound test rating. They go by the diameter of the line and attach a pound number to it that may or may not be correct.
I also tried some of the 10# Stren Original and the 10# Trilene XL lines. Neither one would lift the 10# barbell without breaking. They did both lift the 9# barbell and neither of them broke at the knot. According to the manufacturer’s specifications the Trilene XL is listed as being .001” smaller than the Stren Original in the 10 pound test lines.
I also put some 10# Eagle Claw Premium Monofilament line on the 10# barbell and it did lift it without breaking. The 10# Eagle Claw is .011” thick that is also the size of the Trilene XL and smaller then the Stren Original listed at .012”. Eagle Claw fishing line has always been my preference but is usually not available when I want to buy fishing line. I will not go any further about the testing of the Eagle Claw line since that is not the subject of this review.
The 10# Magnathin is still an excellent line to use in place of 6# line or as a 7# line that is not available from most manufacturers."

Strong line low diameter
,January 25, 2011
By Spade13
from Bokoshe, OK
Advantages: Performs well, Value for money
"I really like this line because I can use heavy line without the thick diameter you usually have to deal with. I prefer monofilament line over braid, but at my local lake I flip thick grass beds that require heavy line. With the low diameter I can spool up with 30# line and not worry about alot of memory or a loss of bait action. I highly recomend it."

"When I was 15 yrs. i worked on my dads charter boat,and at that time,the black Drum were in.We had 5 lawyers book our boat for three days.when I was done taken care of the party I use to get a rod and try and catch them more fish. Our penn reels had 17lb. test stren on them. We caught 5 Black Drum that day and mine was the biggest. it weighted 85lbs. It took 1.5 hrs. to get it to the boat. it was the biggest fish i had ever caught even to this day.But knowing how to use the drag along with having stren line on allowed me to have one of the biggest thrills of my teen age. i highly recommand this line to everyone. now i use magnathin and it's great!"

"This is great line for both freshwater and saltwater fishing. I have moss green Stren line on a Phlueger rod and reel combo for bass and blue gill. Moss green line is great for bass and blue gill in mud stained water. I use this line in the clear color for saltwater fishing. It is super strong line and it has little memory. I highly recomend this line."

"I have been using this line since it came out in the 90s. I have used other lines, but nothing gives me the same characteristics and qualities as this line. It has relatively low memory, good abrasion resistance, and the fact that I am able to use a higher pound test line without increasing to a bulkier diameter makes this line my first choice for monofilament even after all these years."

"I've used Stren for 30 years. It is consistently good line. It is low-memory, it's pliable and has great tensile strength. I especially like the Magnathin. Because it is thinner it is less visible in the water and you can get more on your spool."

"This is the best spinning line I have ever used. Has a lot less memory than original Stren. It cost a little more and the thinner diameter does make it more susseptable to break offs but just set your drag a little lighter, it is not a man handling line."

By shakeybasser

"i like using this line for baits that get cast into heavy cover. i like the 12# test because it's roughly the same diameter as 8#. that gives me the best castability and accuracy when targeting structure. of course watch your line when getting into the rough stuff, you'll have to retie on occasion. but overall, stren does an excellent job getting bass into the boat."
