Gumboot Posted August 3, 2022 Posted August 3, 2022 I had a big spool of 5 lb Maxima mono that I finally used up last night. The label peeled off and now I'm looking for more. Should the Maxima Ultragreen be the same as the spool I bought in the past? Terrierman 1
Quillback Posted August 3, 2022 Posted August 3, 2022 If the old spool had green line then it was most likely Ultragreen, I've been using it for years, it is good stuff. grizwilson 1
tjm Posted August 3, 2022 Posted August 3, 2022 I don't think they have changed anything, if the Maxima you had was Ultragreen it should be the same. But if the Maxima you had was Chameleon or Clear, the Ultragreen will be limper and softer. I've used Chameleon (brown) for decades as fly fishing leader (and on spinning reels back when I used them) because I like the abrasion resistance and stiffness of it and when I once bought Ultragreen by accident I discovered they are very different products. Clear is somewhere between Chameleon and Ultragreen in stiffness and abrasion resistance. Terrierman 1
Gumboot Posted August 3, 2022 Author Posted August 3, 2022 It must be the Ultragreen as limp and soft is what I liked about it. At 63 years old, hoping to avoid those attributes for as long as possible. Thanks for the replies. JestersHK, fshndoug, BilletHead and 2 others 1 4

grizwilson Posted August 4, 2022 Posted August 4, 2022 I recently spent $6,500 on this registered Black Angus bull. I put him out with the herd but he just ate grass and wouldn't even look at a cow. I was beginning to think I had paid more for that bull than he was worth. Anyway......I had the Vet come and take a look at him. He said,, the bull was very healthy, but possibly just a little young, so he gave me some pills to feed him once per day. The bull started to service the cows within two days……. all my cows! He even broke through the fence and bred with all of my neighbor's cows! He's like a machine! I don't know what was in the pills the Vet gave him ... but they kind of taste like peppermint. nomolites, Daryk Campbell Sr, MarkG52 and 6 others 2 7 “If a cluttered desk is a sign, of a cluttered mind, of what then, is an empty desk a sign?”- Albert Einstein
