I know that every one likes Maxima UG, and I use it too but has any one tried the new Rapala Finnese or Tough line yet? and how is it?

I fished the Rapala Tough on the coast this week.It seemed to hold up just fine.I used the 12# on my baitcaster.It did seem a bit softer than Maxima UG and it casted well.Next will be the test of time,as is I just spooled it up.Plus you can't beat the price for the amount of line you get.Good fishing.ReiterRat.

I've used the Rapala finesse on my spinning reel. Its well behaved and thin diameter. I may have a new summer line. Not as strong as say Maxima UG, but you can't get this strength and still work well on a spinning reel.
