Bass Pro has a limited selection of 2# test. They used to carry the SOS 2# test. I consider that to be the best all around 2# test mono on the market. I have used the 2# P-Line CX Premium. It is a good line also....not the best knot strength but still a good line. Academy Sports used to sell 2# and also a 3# test mono. But you will get your best casting distance with a 2# test line.

I have the SOS 2#, but now I just need to figure the TM thing out...tried it first time at JPP tailwaters yesterday with very little luck...

The only place local that has the SOS trout magnet line is Joel's Caney Fork Outdoors up at Big Rock Market.

I am a big fan of that line but currently have the Trilene from Academy on it.

Well....if I wasn't laid up I could meet up with you and show you the technique I use. But I won't be able to fish until mid March. MNfisher and friend caught 60 between the two of them in only a couple of hours yesterday. If you keep going to Percy I am sure you will run into several who are Trout Magnet users and will be glad to give you some tips. Wish I could be of more help.....I am dyeing to get my surgery done...rehab....and back on the water.

Look for me at trout stockings around Middle Tennessee and I will help with TM's and if you need SOS line,2 or 4 lb I will have it along with some neon kits of TM's. Plus I have a lot of the other colors available.
Can not miss me because I am old and got long gray hair. About 6'3" and drive a 3500 Dodge gray Mega Cab truck.

Thanx and will do! I'll be watching for long hair and a big truck :) How do you know what color to start off with? Experience will tell you I imagine...but they make so many darn colors!

Start off with Bison...then black....then white....and then just pick one if none of those are working.
