Larry- I have been using Samson's Ultra Lite. It is a non water absorbing, light weight line, and doesn't noticbly stretch. I've been using the line for the last season and a 1/2. It does wear slightly faster then other lines right where the winch drum contacts the line. I like it though and will use it when I replace them agian. Check the link out you will find the Ultra Lite at the bottom. I also use the 3/8" as it is easier for the trimmer to hold when the breeze is up. http://www.apsltd.com/Tree/d3000/e846.asp
