A kajillion bits of fishing tackle have been lugged on many trips to the Boundary Waters.  We’ve witnessed firsthand, tackle boxes that are larger than our packs.

You too?  We knew we were not alone.

Which got us thinking.  There must be miles of fishing line lost to snags, strainers and runaway walleyes. Could there be a better way to leave no trace?

Check out Bioline’s Biodegradable fishing line.  Manufactured to biodegrade within 5 years, it makes us believe it would be a low-impact choice for a wilderness area.  Normal monofilament takes at least 500 years to decompose.  Guess no one has to do the math there.  Even the packaging is reusable and recyclable.  Each spool holds 225 yards, with test weights ranging between 4 and 12 pounds.

Now you don’t have to feel too bad when that pike gets away with your line.

Land yours here.
