Been using tiger line on my lake for last few years and love the sinking qualities but this year on a new lake i need to fish a lot further out and its difficult casting flurocarbon especially in high winds. So looking for something to go on my spare spools,needs to be strong easy to cast and ideally sinking

Any recommendations?

Synchro xt or Nash bullet strength dependant on weight and distance being cast.

Synchro XT or CM90 for me, with the Synchro XT just edging it at the moment.

Gardner Pro.

A mate was watching me hit 150yards this week in a crosswind, 3.25lb rods, 3.5oz lead, 15mm boilie to 15lb Pro light.

A couple of casts across the field were properly measured when he asked how far I could cast

ESP Synchro XT is the best that I have used and it really does cover all situations I face (decent casting, very abrasion resistant, sinks well enough and behaves on the spool)

Done a bit of research seems the older esp line is a lot better than the newer stuff?

never anyone say that ?
and Knowing what a dedicated company ESP is I would say its a load of b******* myself the only thing I would say is the Loaded version is a completely different line in most ways
