Will this tie knots more like regular rope than monofilament fishing line? what i want is really just a thin tough rope

yes it ties just like rope with no slipping. Keep in mind once the knot is tied and pulled tight it will not be undone. Using a draw weight scale used for setting up compound bows the line broke at 88lbs no matter what knot i used. Hope this helps

This fish line will work for thin strong line. You must be careful though. The line is strong enough to cut through skin so we wear leather gloves and be careful. NEVER wrap it around your hand. It will take regular knots like a bowline. The line is also strong enough that if it crosses itself, like on a fish reel it can cut the line laying on the reel. This is a product of dyneem tensile strength vs sheer strength. Great stuff and very light.

I use powerpro for saltwater fishing, but one thing for sure is you will IMPROVE your hookset with PowerPro. There is no stretch in the line like mono. If you are bass fishing, you will rarely have that much line out. You will feel every bump and wiggle at that length. If anything, you will try to set the hook too early because a 'tap' will feel like a hit on mono. Yo will have to get used to the sensitivity to begin with.

Are you referring to a bobber? The line has camera technology in it, so unable to secure by tying it. I suppose one could use bobber if could attach in some way, I love mine for crappie fishing

No, this rope isn't ideal to be used as a resistance rope. It only has enough stretch to keep it durable, but a bit too much and I feel that it may snap.

It does come with line on it. I believe it was about 25Lb Mono. I went down to local tackle store and had them remove about 100Yds and splice on 200Yds of braided line using Mono as filler on reel.

I can't tell you the size of the line. It did not matter. The line that came with mine was so stiff and hard it was virtually impossible to tie a knot, and I know a few knots. I set aside the line and bought another one, much more expensive and great to use. The Weaver weight is good though.

Synthetic rope is the only way to go. They even make ones that are short just for plowing. Going over the pulley so many times with a steel cable makes them break very fast. Synthetic is way more flexible and still strong. Pay close attention to where that cable travels when it's tight. Mine rubbed on a metal edge that I had to grind down so it didn't cut into the synthetic.

I dont think you could tie any knots with them on but using rod and reel should be no problem. They do keep you dry and are pretty warm.

It is easy to handle and flexible, very similar to braided fishing line. Standard knots will slip, so you need to use knots designed for synthetic line i.e. Palomar, figure-8 . Very strong, would buy again

it is the thickness of a 12lb monofilament fishing line which has memory to knot up and fire line doesn't. Hope this helps!

It does appear to be just like fishing line. I would get some high strength fishing line. Mine came undone when the door stuck after painting the frame. I had to cut open the wall to access the door. That was rough as I had just finished painting and putting up trim when this happened.

No problem using it as a regular jump rope. I get as much of a work out with this light weight rope as I did with my normal weight jump rope. Just get the length right and you're in business.

The rope will hold your weight but be careful about leaving it outside in the weather a braided marine line would last longer.

Any fish you would need to use a braided line for would be too much for that reel. Stick with mono.

Yes its very thin and feels like it has a coating similar to teflon. Once you crank down on the knot its not coming out. Some of the best cord next to the tried and true 550

My reel came with line and seems to come off fine. I use it for bowfishing....only downside it its weight.

I'm sure if you braided several equal length brands together to make a rope it would work more comfortably than one single strand; though the single strand would hold your weight at cost of comfort - which could result in a fall. Thick Knots on a single strand would be okay for climbing or lowering short distances.
