Cons: Sharp as wire if strung tightly; will damage trees if used to hang gear; WILL cut hands without gloves if used under strain.

Best left on a fishing reel IMO <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/crazy.gif" alt="" />

Better line exisits at your marine outlet...Look for the small diameter line used for small sailboat racers. It comes in purple, and, an orange color which is easy to keep from tripping on in camp, yet after you are 50 feet away it's barely noticeable. I'm wracking my brain but can't think of the name.... <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" /> I think it has a Spectra core and nylon braid exterior.

Plenty strong for what you need and not heavy as 550 cord. It's all I've used the past 10 years <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/cool.gif" alt="" />
