Every piece of mono ever lost is still out there

Angler and Biolines founder Pat Ferguson applied his expertise in biabsorbable medical technology to the development of a more environmentally friendly fishing line.

Bioline biofilament fishing line biodegrades in the environment in five years versus six hundred for standard mono. LINK

I've been playing with it for a little while now, and really like it. Get it in tippet spools @ Green Tackle. http://www.greentackle.com/bioline-fly-fishing-tippet.html It's worth it to the environment.

Huge fan of the stuff. Really strong - you'd think 'biodegradable=weak' but that's not the case, this is tough stuff.

Very interesting idea...but I see one hold up here. According to their specifications table, 5X is listed as having a diameter of .008". That's comparable to the diameter of mono and flouro in 3X. Even the smallest size they manufacture, which is claimed to be 6X is actually a 4X diameter. I could see using this in larger sizes without any problem, but in smaller sizes this looks to be an issue.
