Spiderwire vs Fireline

[Jimmay 0]

Hi,

 

I have a question regarding trailer hooks for any steelhead/salmon fly.

 

Is there any reason to use Fireline over spiderwire? I have some #50 spider wire stealth I was hoping to use for trailer hooks, and noticed a lot of people prefer fireline. From what I see, I don’t think there is a lot of difference between the two.

 

Thanks in advance. Cheers .

Been using #30 Invisibraid Spiderwire for quite some time and it works great for trailers on large streamers. Easy to work with and never had a break off. Just my 2 cents, but either should work as well as the other if it is secured properly. A little Zap-a-Gap doesn't hurt.
