Sufficient replacement for Maxima line???

[johnagall]

I might sound like a bit of a tightwad here but i'm looking for a cheaper replacement for my reellines. I have noticed my most recent Maxima wasn't that good quality wise compared to previous spools. This could have been a bad batch but i thought it would be a good chance to try something new.

I have seen Daiwa sensor for about £8 for 3000 M bulk spools and people on the forums seem to think its a good line. Do you think its a suitable replacement for the Maxima?

I reason I have went for Maxima in the past is that its a stretchy, sinking line. Does anyone have any experience of using Sensor and able to clarify if its any good in the stretchy, sinking department.

Many thanks

I use it for most of my fishing, but only in bs 10_25lb.its a bit springy but tough as old boots and cheap as chips. used max for years the bekley big game now i stick with sensor clear and brown,its got a fair bit of stretch and the heavier bs sinks well,but mines usually got plenty of lead on it lol.give it a try mate.Regards Peter.

i'd be looking to use it in 4 and 6 lb breaking strains. will that make any difference or does the quality run through all breaking strains?

Daiwa sensor all the way 7.99 for about 2000 metres is very good value you can make it sink or float its quite versatile
