Since I am asking all the questions, thought I would add a little something to the fishing forum. Below you will find mono/fluoro and braided lines along with their stated diameter. A better way to choose similar handling lines perhaps over stated break strength. Lines sorted by name:

Good info, no wonder Trilene XT seems so strong but also unmanageable, 10 lb XT is larger than many 12 lb lines! P line original 10 lb is the same diameter as 6 lb XT! A friend use to brag about how he could land anything on Trilene XT and that small diameter was the only way to go. He always gave me a hard time for using 8-10 lb, funny to find out he was actually using 8-10 lb himself.
