I picked up some 150' spools for about $9.00 at Gander Mountain. It's high visibility and seems to be easy on the tangles.

How does this compare to mason line for it's size/diameter? I know that the stuff you mention is going to be stonger. Oh, and does it stretch?

It is just slightly larger in diameter than mason line, easier to splice than mason line, and stiffer so not near the tangle head ache. I've not experienced any stretch and I've used it both dry and in the rain.

(I am neither a paid spokesperson for Tow Line nor do I play one on Television.)

Why do I find this thread only hours after I went out and bought hundreds of feet of expensive high tech line for making tarp ridge lines. Ah well. Back to splicing.
