Many thanks for the help and very kind offers Gents.
I've now ordered him two packs each in the maver carp range.
He was blaming my knotts, which I pointed out had caught over 30 fish on the same day. I told him to go home and test the breaking strain of the line. It was 8lb line and was snapping every time he put 5lb weights on it
I told him not to buy cheap stuff any more when it comes to fishing lines. It wasn't really cheap but mid price range, so I've told him to stick to maxima or Daiwa sensor and use a Berkley hook length which is what I always go for.
I can't remember the name of the makers and I think he's now thrown them out. I think he's now learned his lesson. Which I'm glad abot because I don't want him blaming line for me catching more than him.
