Newboy Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 (edited) Nylon is best, 8-10 mm for small boat and 3 x max depth you intend to fish. Edited September 10, 2006 by Newboy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shytalk Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 nylon or polyester which is cheaper try gundrys at bridport minimum 10mm for handling purposes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coddy Posted September 10, 2006 Report Share Posted September 10, 2006 John Depending on your strength and hand dexterity, I would recommend 12mm rope as it is easier on the hands to grip. Just my thoughts Coddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sole Man Posted September 11, 2006 Author Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 Thanks for that. I think at first I will only be fishing in Poole bay and at Christchurch Ledge so what length will I need. Thanks John Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul D Posted September 11, 2006 Report Share Posted September 11, 2006 John, Hold off on the rope for now, I have more than I use of 12mm nylon ( I have a whole reel ) - so you are welcome to have some of this at cost price. ( I will get length and cost for you ). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
