    how good would these be for a clothes line? Mine broke yesterday so thinking of getting some from bunnings but free is free

      lol I was kidding

      but in all seriousness how thick are these?

      • Ishadeon on 02/06/2011 - 01:31

        From watching movies… I would assume these could cut u if put under tension… so a clothes line may not be the best idea.

          Damn, and I like swinging off my hills hoist lol, might think twice if it's made of fishing line. I do value my fingers.

    • yeahnah-nahyeah on 02/06/2011 - 01:08

      given that mono line stretches, probably not good

    The word FREE is a taboo in the business world, don't throw it around so casually, especially not here, now prepare to be OzBargained

    • Ishadeon on 02/06/2011 - 01:32

      I know. But given the company is around since 1955 I have less guilt then the other freebies I have put up here. Plus at the end of the day these guys are small enough to be forgiven if they dont pull through. We all know someone with a small business. No one is forcing them to do anything that will create serious losses at the end of the day.

  • hkspaceship on 02/06/2011 - 00:48

    thanks a lot !!! good found!

  • halfrabbit on 02/06/2011 - 00:48

    I don't fish, but why would anyone want a line with a breaking strain of 9lb rather than 30lb. Is it noticeably thicker?

    • pauly on 02/06/2011 - 01:08
      +1

      You can't use a 30 pounder on many reels. And the thicker the line is, the less length you're going to get spooled into the reel. So 9lb lines do have their purpose. :)

      Good find by the way Ishadeon.

    • sleepy120 on 02/06/2011 - 10:53

      Thinner line gives you a more competitive feel, you have to bring in the fish more delicately or your line will break. Thinner is easier to cast as it comes off the spool easier.
      Thick line may spook the fish if they can see it whereas thin can be invisible.

    Alright…all these positive comments… yet none of you guys have given positive votes. Come on guys. I am aiming for one 100+ votes and have been putting up some serious freebies. Let my false ego be satisfied. I blame 90s games for this btw… the higher the score the better the p…s power

    • llama on 02/06/2011 - 01:35

      Probably more like "the higher the score the better the B…S power" LOL

    • issh on 02/06/2011 - 16:47

      yay 100!

  • cmdbash on 02/06/2011 - 07:46

    What kind of line is the best?

    • MattyD on 02/06/2011 - 09:22
      +8

      For landing narwhals I find I need at least 60lb. For cutting off the circulation to your pinky finger I like to rig a lighter strain; say 7-9lb. All the tripwires in my frontyard are 15lb mono.

      What did you want to use it for again?

    • tron07 on 02/06/2011 - 09:45

      It depends on how you want to use it and what type of fish you want to target. Line for backing, leader, to target big fish from a boat you need bigger load and to target small fish from land/jetty/river you probably can do with a smaller line

    • sleepy120 on 02/06/2011 - 10:59

      BRAIDED/SPECTRA/DYNEEMA lines are the newer lines to the market in the past decade. Stronger for the same thickness as mono and doesn't stretch. Has it's own advantages/disadvantages.

      Looks similar to sewing thread as mono looks like thin wiper sniper line.

      • [Deactivated] on 03/06/2011 - 23:17

        Braided all the way.

        There is a reason why they are giving mono for free.

    there website has been ozbargained. it cant handle it.
    but persistence pays off. got to love the F5 key

  • shopbot on 02/06/2011 - 10:50

    Made it through just a few moments ago. Hopefully now, they will follow through with the offer.

  • mrmoshe on 02/06/2011 - 11:01

    Finally got through although VERY slow loading pages.

    I ordered the 12lb line as I need to re-spool the kids fishing reels
    after a summer of catching flathead, bream,tailor and whiting using mono.

    The quality is not too bad for regular mono fishing line. Made in Germany so
    not a cheap Chinese import. It will last a season I'm sure.

    Good deal, but I hope they don't reneg on it as they must be swamped.

    Please don't order it if you aren't going to use it..or know someone who will use it.
    This company doesn't need non fisherpersons wasting their product I'm sure.

  • adamwf on 02/06/2011 - 18:08

    Yep they changed their terms and conditions from when I originally put my claim through yesterday… :)
    Originally there was only a restriction of one application per email address, now they have changed it all and added a heap of extra terms and conditions!

    Nothing yet (SA)
    Seems like several people wrote on their facebook asking about the free fishing line, and all they said publicly was to email them so they can replay personally…why cant they just say why on facebook publicly, I assume those few arent the only ones who haven't received it yet. People who got a replay on FB and emailed them, did they say anything?
