I have been using Gami line since it first came out and have never had a problem with it. I think it's a great line and no line that I've used with the same Dia. even comes close. I fished the Skagit on saturday and landed a 23 lbs 1 ounce native buck on 12 lbs Gami line. No it's not a great feat to land a big fish on 12 lbs line but it's the same leader I used to land multipal steely's on in the hoh two weeks ago. I checked the line after each fish and the line was in great shape so I did not bother tying a new leader. But after that big fish I did. Yes I do have pic's also but the way some guy's act as if there above god when it comes to proper handling of nates is the reason I would not post them on this board. Sorry guys I guess a few bad apples can spoil the bunch!
