Hey BFTers what is a good all around line for spinning rod (ie brand, test, material) I'm not sure what line I have on now but I need to replace it. I am a newbie to spin fishing but I would like to fish for wipers, catfish trout perch, bluegill, bass so pretty much everything

Fishdog said it. I use the exact same line and I love it. It is an excellent line for all around fishing.

For once Out4Trout is right. That excalibar line is the best. Strong low low memory and tuff as nalis around rocks or in a ice hole. It just works so well I have zero complaints. I use it in all types of fishing from trout to cats to wipers. It seems to be twice as strong as the rate it.Aske Mr Tubedude about this line....

Thanks for the advice. What about line strength? 8 lb test sound about right?

Too easy ...
Spinning rods usually do best with 6lb mono. For years I have used TRILENE XT Green ... NOT ... XL ... XT is awesome! I also have started to use Yozuri Hybrid. It's really tough.
If you are using a 6ft. spinning rod, go with 6lb test. Hope this helps!
