I've been using D.A.M for years without a problem.

I don't have any more problems with Platypus than you do with any other mono.

How far are you looking to cast ?

Schnider Fine Line is very good. It is not as thin as Platypus Super 100 but has less of the drawbacks of a super thin line. That said I do use Super 100 a lot. The only drawback (apart from obviously less abrasion resistance)

is that the knot strength is not so good. You can get around this by tying a bimini double first, which is a 100% knot.

PS: do you really want to use a thin line for rock fishing? If you are using overhead gear it won't make much difference to casting distance.

Have platypus pretest on most of my mono outfits, never had a problem with it. Schneider line has good abrasion resistance.
