Steve: Get a good low-stretch double braid. Lots of options. Go to a chandelier and feel the lines.

The stuff that Duckworks sells is plenty nice for a good price. They have Marlowe and also a "generic" line, which I have bought and find plenty suitable. You can pay more of course... :-) https://duckworks.com/rope-chain/ cheers, John On 8/6/21 12:16 PM, Steve w wrote:
