Dypsis Posted January 4, 2018 Posted January 4, 2018 Anyone using this line. Sure is pricey. Read a few reviews (which I take with a grain of salt on TW) about breakage. If you used it what are your thoughts and any issues with breaking? Quote
Logic04 Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 My opinion on the line, didn't really answer your question From doing my own research ( which you should take with a grain of salt) I've came to conclusions the closet parallel is its a combination of super slick and original power pro. I personally wouldn't pay that much for braid, I would stick with the the tried-and-true lines like suffix and the original power pro Quote
anderb54 Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 I had some issues with break offs and knots slipping on it. Got it for free, and I can say I wouldn't buy it, especially at the price it's offered at. Quote
Tim Kelly Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 I have some 50 and some 20 on reels and it's been perfectly fine. It's basically a thinner version of standard power pro. I really don't see why it costs what it does, but it's a good braid other than the price, if you want a 4 strand for good 4 strand reasons (durability, stiffness and weed cutting at the expense of softness and quietness through the guides).

npl_texas Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 Got a few spools for free from ordering some specific reels. I have it on my topwater rod that I throw ploppers on. No issues for me at all. It is thin so maybe go up 10# from standard braid if using on a baitcaster. I had some 30# on a jig rod and it would dig in a bit when trying to pop the line of snags and things like that. Quote
Preytorien Posted January 5, 2018 Posted January 5, 2018 I've used it before, never had a single problem. I liked it. It seemed to me just a thinner version of the regular power pro, same strength, just smaller diameter. I used it on a couple jig rods and even a frog setup, never had a single issue. I only stopped using it because I wore off the color, like most braids do, and continued with my testing of other lines. I kinda like jumping around and trying new ones pretty often. To sum it up - Would recommend. Never had issues. Thinness is noticable. Price-to-value opinion is all up to you. Quote
