PezJunkie Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 I have had it with Spiderwire and Fireline. Looking for help on a new line preferably braided line to go on baitcast reels. Currently eyeballing Sufix performance braid power pro line p line I know a lot of y'all have and experience with these and any input would be helpful on my decision making Quote
Super User roadwarrior Posted March 8, 2008 Super User Posted March 8, 2008 Welcome aboard! I don't fish braid, but you will have several suggestions shortly. 8-) Quote
Super User Grey Wolf Posted March 8, 2008 Super User Posted March 8, 2008 WELCOME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Of the three you mentioned , I prefer sufix. You're going to get many differant opinions here. Quote
SimonSays Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 I haven't fished the p-line but Power Pro and Suffix are both very good. Quote
fishingram24 Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 I have been using Power Pro for about 5 years and have no problem recommending it to my friends. Quote
Just_Old_Fisherman Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 Probably find more people using Power Pro than any other braid. At least that is the impression I get on the 5-6 forums I frequent. Quote
Shadcranker Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 Power Pro here. Love the stuff. Actually I hate braid, but when I'm frog fishing it's mandatory, and Power pro is by far the best I've found. Quote
Super User Wayne P. Posted March 8, 2008 Super User Posted March 8, 2008 For baitcasting gear with spinnerbait type baits, I like Spiderwire Stealth and for other baits I prefer Stren Super Braid. I like Stren Super Braid for spinning gear. I don't like the rough texture of Power Pro and some of the others. Quote
skippinfool Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 I am going to try 10 & 12 lb. Stren Microfuse for throwing on spinning gear for smaller shakey head jigs. Also will try this on baitcaster for flippin. Have heard this casts great on spinning, lower vis in water, and does not get dirty like Fireline. After reading comments posted, I will have to try the Spectra Power Pro. What lb. size are you all using for flippin/pitchin? Other uses for braid. Quote
Super User dodgeguy Posted March 8, 2008 Super User Posted March 8, 2008 ther was a poll fo braids on here recently and sufix won with %42.i suggest sufix. Quote
strick9 Posted March 8, 2008 Posted March 8, 2008 The only braid I use on a baitcaster is for frog fishing and I use 50# in either Power Pro or P-Line Spectrex both are good lines for me. I use 20 or 30# Stren Super Braid on one spinning reel, it is softer and more manageable on a spinning reel. Quote
