Power pro question

[F1SH]

Just ordered a spool of power pro and upon receiving noticed the line was a very light green unlike the typical dark green I get. Anyone have this happen to them before? Just a lighter colored batch?

I'd probably send it back.  I'd be worried it was either used, a fake product, or a factory defect that extended beyond just the color.

Is it the Hi Vis Yellow?  Scan the barcode.  You can use Amazon's app or there are several others that will direct to what product it's supposed to be.

Moss green original power pro. Although it’s more of a light green. In my twenty years of using power pro I’ve never seen this. I just took your advice and scanned the barcode on Amazon and it came up as power pro.

it should be dark moss green.

Weird.  I used it for a long time and have since moved on to other lines but it's still good stuff. I have never seen a color issue with it before though.  I would reach out to the guys at Power Pro and see what they have to say.  They were helpful with some counterfeit line I bought from a big box store years ago.  I still can't believe to this day it was on their shelf and they still probably will deny I bought it there.

Power Pro starts out dark green, then lightens slightly with age. I have never seen "very light green" Power Pro.  Could be something new (hope not), or a different SKU.  If it's in a Power Pro Box, I doubt it's counterfeit.  Maybe a weird dye lot?

Are you sure you didn't buy the Aqua Green that is listed on the Amazon site?

I'd contact the manufacturer, they usually like to handle these kinds of things.

Maybe miss packaged at the factory? Does the label on the spool match the box?

The original Super Slick Power Pro was a very light green. The updated V2 Super Slick is darker but still a bit lighter than original Power Pro.

This was original power pro in a very light green. I’ve been fishing power pro for the last twenty years and never encountered it before I ended up getting another spool which was normal and will be contacting power pro and see what they have to say about it

That is indeed strange. Perhaps it’s an albino of the typical moss green. I believe contacting them is the right thing to do. Who know, it just might a winning spool, perhaps the 10 billionth power pro spool sold and as the reward, they’ll give you power pro for life, lol.
