I am trying to locate Fenwick Riverline in 12# test. If anyone has seen some, please let me know! When you find something that works it is always hard to change.

Fenwick no longer makes the Riverline product. I noticed a couple of years ago that it was becoming harder to find, and upon calling Fenwick, was told that it had been discontinued. You may still see spools in shops and catalogs, but finding it in 8, 10, or 12# is difficult.

That is what I have found also. This post was just a last resort. The stuff is killer, since you have tried it , I'm sure you know. I was hoping, since Fenwick was purchased by Berkeley that they would market a similar product... we will have to wait and see. Meanwhile I hope I can find some old backstock... closeouts if i'm lucky! Thanks for the reply...

I remember being told that Berkeley made the same line under a different name, but I don't recall which line it was. At the time, I did give it a try, but was very disappointed in the quality, plus, the line color was changed. My father liked the Riverline because he could see it easier when tying up (and working out backlashes). Good luck on locating some.
