TUF Line XP Braided Line
Official line of the Mann's Slick Lures Alabama Rig!
TUF-Line XP Braided Line is more compact, smaller in diameter, packs better on reels, offers better knot performance, casts longer, reduces rod tip wraps, and boasts higher abrasion resistance than other competitive lines.
Produced with Aerospace technology, TUF-Line XP Braided Line utilizes Tension Lock Technology. It is braided under high tension, creating more compaction of the fibers during the finishing process and a rounder profile. TUF-Line XP Braided Line’s state-of-the-art coating also remains permanently bonded to the fibers, offering an incredibly long service life with zero shedding.
"I tried almost every brand of braided line while I was developing the Alabama Rig and found that TUF-Line XP was hands down the best. It casts better and handles the extreme abrasion that the weight of the rig puts on your line. It is also made in the U.S.A. and that is very important to me." - Andy Poss, inventor of the original Alabama Rig.

Comments: I love throwing this line on my frogs and V&M flipin jigs. it does fade fairly fast but so does all braid (quick fix for all braid is to use a sharpie and color it black about 4 feet up the line or use a fluorocarbon leader on jigs) I usually use 50lb test on my frogs and have never had any problems catching 4 and 5lbers all day long and never retying, but i have broke off a lot of fish on 65lb test power pro. I don't know what Tuf-Line does different, but I like it!

Comments: Decent line for the price. It's nice, not to limp, and it's tough, holds knots well, and is super sensitive like all braid! It doesn't last quite as long (unravels a bit faster) as say power pro or sufix, but at 23 bucks for 300 yards, it's not that bad to respool if ya need too.. just use a 30ish yard backing (use 4lb or less mono, it helps make a smaller knot). Color fads, but so do all braids. Check it, it's decent stuff!

Comments: I have used this line for years and all I have to say is it's a top notch braid at a good price.

Comments: Terrific line , casts better and durability is much better than power pro. I use 30-65 lb on the baitcasters! Made in USA and also the Tuffline folks take care of their customers
From: Ed: Grayslake, IL
Comments: This is an excellent quality braid from a long established company. I prefer the Spectra fiber over Dyneema at any rate for better durability. I think this line is a hybrid mixing the two. This makes for a very supple line that casts very well with a baitcaster or spinning reel. The dye tends to fade quickly but I really don't consider that an issue as most braids will do the same thing. Does not dig in. Through experience I have found this braid to be very durable and resistant to abrasion. Just caught a nice 12 lb. Striper with a baitcaster and 50/12 Tuf-line that has been on this reel for 3 years. Line handled it with ease.
