Today's knot tensile tests were performed on: Mikado Eyes Blue Ice 0.16. Airflow - 120°C Konger Steelon Fluo 0.16 (0.19 real). Airflow – 120°C Silver Stream Zombi Monster Club 0.181. Airflow - 130°C Unused (new) Trabucco T-force Winter Ice Super Strong 0.165 (R$0.195). Airflow – 130°C

Summarizing the results of the experiments, I can confidently say that at an elementary knot, all three fishing lines break at a tension half (approximately) less than expected. When using the Clinch Knot, Knotless Knot and Palomar Knot - quite decent. So, for example, the Silver Stream Zombi line, when using my favorite Clinch Advanced knot, broke more than fifteen millimeters from the knot itself, and the Konger Steelon Fluo - ten.

A separate topic is Trabucco T-force. Since this fishing line was used in a completely new state for the purity of the experiment, it showed itself as follows. With a real diameter of 0.195 mm, the fishing line without thermal exposure showed excellent resistance to tearing, as well as breaking at all joints. After a thermal exposure of 140°C, the line began to behave frankly weakly at all three nodes, and the temperature of the air flow had to be reduced to 130°C. But. Even under these conditions, it seemed to me that the forest had lost its “strength of novelty.” At 120°C Trabucco behaved as if untouched.

Preliminary summary. The impact of heat treatment on used fishing lines is completely justified.

The choice of fishing line, its types, color and why to boil the fishing line

This thin thread unites all the components of the gear and... most often fails. It does not tolerate scuffs, knots, ligaments and even small nicks. The fishing line is destroyed by friction against the rings and the tulip, oxidized and stretched by water, and ages over time. And we want the fishing line to be strong, unnoticeable in the water and at the bottom. And also, so that it serves us without losing its properties and color. So let’s start with the call: if you don’t want to miss large fish, change the fishing line every season, and in the middle of the summer, carry out “castling” - make the end of the fishing line on the reel the beginning, and the beginning the end, since the working part of the fishing line wears out more. And if you pull out a “big fish”, cut off a few meters of the working part of the fishing line, do not allow any knots on the fishing line, and be sure to dry the wet fishing line when returning from fishing.
