Dyneema vs. Spectra???
My experience has been scuba diving rigs offshore Texas equiped with braided cable attached directly to gun. I am adding a reel to the setup for some extra safety as well as to do some freediving.
What are the pros/cons of Dyneema and Spectra. I know that both are readily used and proven performers for spearfishing. I have seen mention of some pecularityies associated with each line, such as Dyneema won't hold using a line crimps and must use a constrictor knot, Dyneema having superior abrassion resistance, and Spectra makes a better reel line because it's more flexible and has a little strech, etc.... What is truth and fiction.
Please shed light on the advantages and differences of these two lines.
Thanks
