I've never been a big fan of P Line, it's always had memory issues and whatnot for me. For 2lb my fav is the Berkley flouro, and Izorline XXX for mono. Lure tossing I only go as low as 3lb with a 7'6 ultralight, otherwise 4lb mono Izor minimum. When I tried casting spoons and kastmasters with 2lb, if the line would snag on the reel, my finger or anything like that, the line would snap and I'd watch my lure go flying into the middle of the lake.
Thanks for the report!

you say 4lb is that for tossing metal or jigs too... see for me 2lb is a must with jigs and power worms whenever i use 4 i seem to see fish shy away much more...thanks for the info guys

2lb izorline is the best and I agree 2lb test is a must for jigs and Power worms. Also I use super dupers 501/502 and small kastmasters with no issues.
