    Heated socks

    I've got the socks.. They work fine and even got bluetooth so I can control them with my phone but as someone has said they are tight.. Mine are full length but I think some that came just above the ankle would suit me better..

    I've been using Gamma copolymer line in the clear (no longer available from Pallatrax who only now do the green) for years and have never had a problem.. It's not springy and because of its make up quite thin for its breaking strain and abrasion resistance is fine... I use 6lb for my chub...
