i've been using the thinking anglers line in 18lb, really like it so far. my issue I found with esp syncro is it becomes very wirey after some usage, nothing a wet sweat band on the spool doesn't fix though

Definitely behaves far better when its wet

Evey nylon line is better when wet.

And as luck would have it carp are frequently found in water

I've put many a bait up in the trees over the years. Never had a run from there yet.😄

Just as well because the line would behave terribly by all accounts

I went onto synchro after seeing a lot rave about it on here but it coils up too easily
Now,Nash Bullet mono or possibly GTHD maybe next

Many thanks to you all for replying.

It's great to see this forum still going so strong.

So I'm none the wiser

For God's sake don't ask for the best bait.

Used both.
Get TouchDown.
Sinks better and a far less lot stretch.
Subline is VERY stretchy.

I've used ESP Syncro XT for ages and I love it

I've also been using the Thinking Anglers new line in 0.35 and I really like that too.

I went from Shimano techinium black to synchro xt last year when I couldn't find any Shimano around I found it very bad with memory and felt like wire a lot of the time, I managed to get hold of 6 spools of Shimano techinium black in 15lb a few weeks back so got rid of the esp and went back to my favourite line the Shimano haven't had a problem since
