Re: What Line ?
Would depend on what reel and age. You will get different answers depending on freshwater vs salt; fly vs casting vs trolling. In general, the oldest would take silk or really oldest, horse hair. However, there have been a lot of lines used since the 1900’s that are neither and would be perfectly appropriate.
