question on what superlines are made from

Post by lifeofRiley » Wed Jan 18, 2017 2:35 pm

I've heard some lines are made from spectra, some from micro-dyneema, and some from polyethylene. Does anyone know the difference in these materials and which lines are which?

Thank youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu!
