P Line Cx, Am I Missing Something Here? 2025

tomustang reply :

So at Dicks and Cabelas I'm noticing diminishing prices for pline, with no added stock. They revamping their CX line or they dropping like my Gamma did?

bigfishbk86 reply :

I noticed the same thing. Boy i sure hope they don't stop making cx...

hookingem reply :

CXX is some darn good stuff landed a 15#+ gar on 6# hope its not disappearing

J Francho reply :

I've TERRIBLE experiences with CX. CXX on the other hand....

MrsTomustang reply :

Don't know. But if you head out in the next few days hit up all the Dick's in the area and pick me up some 6 Lb clear fluro. All we have now is 8 and 10 and Stren is just meh....

endless reply :

I've used CX but loved CXX so I'm with Hookingem hope it's not disappearing.

MrsTomustang reply :

I just sent a comment/question to PLine. We'll see.

Looks like they may be setting up new tooling for C21 and expanding their Halo market.

CXX is pretty good line. I prefer flouro now but it's good for lipless cranks and spinnerbaits.

That gar was in the 8-9 pound range, if that.

Red reply :

Have never used CX but I have been using CXX for a couple years and I haven't had any issues.

Skeet22 reply :

I've made up my mind to stick with straight flouro or pure mono and stay away from the co polymers.

Mono for topwater and flouro or braid for everything else.

BASSclary reply :

Not a fan of either lines, but I will say CXX is STRONG!

Skeet22 reply :

Oh and for the record you can pull a truck with cxx but I cant get pass the memory issue. 100% flouro has less memory then cxx.

100 % agree.

psuangler91 reply :

I can't stand CX, I bought about 4 spools cause it was on sale and hate it. If you want a good hybrid line go with Yo-Zuri Hybrid, I use it for my crankbaits, spinnerbaits, and jigs and it works wonderfully. It has way less memory than the p line and I think it's tougher too. I used strictly mono until last year and I didn't want to go straight to fluoro so I tried the hybrid but next season I'm switching out all my line for pure fluro except for my top water rig and braid for punching.

I.rar reply :

Cxx makes great leader material. Stands up to coral rock pretty well.

SirSnookalot reply :

For me the issue with any " clear " line is how it manages, not the strength. I have caught many good sized fish on the cheapest of clear lines. My last picture post of a larger fish was my reef shark, about 7' long caught on 20# mono /40 lb mono leader. Cxx didn't cut it for me in the management area, returned the spool to P line and they sent me back 2 spools of floroclear, which is pretty good and trilene xl doesn't let me down.

Bluebasser86 reply :

The stuff is pretty nice for moving baits because the stretch is a good shock absorber and the memory gets pulled out pretty fast.

flippin and pitchin reply :

P-Line is very popular in my area with salmon and steelhead anglers because of it's strength. I gave it a fair test a couple of years ago and did not find it supple enough for my taste. It is strong but stiff. Izorline is in the same boat. Good strong line, great knot strength but stiff. I'm still a big fan of Yo-Zuri. Why the markdown and reduction of stock is a mystery to me.

grimlin reply :

I may have to stock up on some more P-line CXX in 6# test.It's all I use on my spinning set ups.

Packard reply :

I bought a 300yrd spool of 12lb. CX at dicks a month ago for $3 and it was the worst line I have ever used..... I don't know if they sold me stale line or what

It's just the CX, not the CXX

MrSwimJig reply :

I have never had any luck with CX or CXX

Chris at Tech reply :

Hmmm....I'm shocked to hear all the negative opinions of CX. I freakin' love that stuff. Thin, strong, and VERY manageable.

I concur with those who mention terrible line management issues with CXX. Doesn't matter to me that I can pull up a stump off the bottom when I can't cast without loops.

Vinny Chase reply :

My two biggest fish were caught on CXX so I cannot complain about that line.

johnD. reply :

I anybody want to add a comparison , cxx vs fluoroclear ?

Packard reply :

I also used CXX and it was decent just too stiff for me.

tomustang reply :

I'm a bit disappointed, it's been 2 weeks since an email got shot out to PLine without any reply.
