I think it comes down to knowing what a line is capable of , say you take lines of .6 .8 .10 .12 and .14 , you can visually see the difference but with breaking strains its a bit of guess work unless you do a few tests , maybe putting its into categories will help ,say , .7 , .8 for roach fishing ..... .10 , .12 for perch and bream and .14 and above for carp/tench . This is what i do and that suits me but it comes down to personal choice .
