They definitely make line that is strong enough but it's thicker and fish that spot it are hesitant to take the bait. So there's a balance: strong enough not to lose fish but thin enough to gain an edge over the other competitors.

I was thinking about designing a line that thickened and strengthened in response to the tension of reeling, but that I realized a negative poisson ratio was the opposite of what I wanted.
