what diameter dyneema should I use for my shaft line?

Thread Status: Hello , There was no answer in this thread for more than 60 days.
It can take a long time to get an up-to-date response or contact with relevant users.
Never have a problem with dyneema though. I use single wrap only for shooting groupers. I started to have tangling problems when using double wrap, shooting dentex or amberjacks.
 
I would suggest 2mm dyneema because line wears down rubbing on reefs and general wear on gun.
And the day you shoot something big like a giant king, the line would make it more pleasant...
Just my opinion
