Super User Hammer 4 Posted July 30, 2010 Super User Posted July 30, 2010 I don't recall the Exact number, but 2 or 3 comes to mind, and that's in 6 months. So stating that samuri digs "sometimes" really doesn't seem to be a fair statement unless of course you've experienced it. i've used it and it digs sometimes.had it on a reel for last year.fireline braid never dug in.the samuria is softer and smoother but the fireline braid is rounder and has more body.if they didn't make the fireline braid i would use the diawa braid as my 2nd choice. Does the Fireline have a waxy coating on it, and how does the diameter compare to the Samuri..? I'm to lazy to look it up.. ;D Quote
BigGame0892 Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 Used Suffix Performance Braid on 2 baitcasters and one spinning reel last weekend. Very nice stuff. I liked it better than PowerPro and Fireline. Quote
fishinflip415 Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 For all around use and value power pro is hard to beat, but if money is not an issue daiwa samurai braid is the way to go. 8-) Quote
Dave T. Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 I like Sufix I love Sufix Performance Braid. The new Sufix Stretch Braid is awesome on spinning reels. Looking forward to trying the new Sufix 832 Braid. Quote

I'm to lazy to look it up.. ;D no waxy coating.i think the diawa is absolutely thinner in the closest pound tests.they are both good i just prefer the fireline braid.if they didn't make it i would buy the diawa.

Pantera61 Posted July 30, 2010 Posted July 30, 2010 GsXtacy, Daiwa's Samurai braid is the BEST for spinning reels. Spinning: 1. Toray Finesse braid 2. Varivas Finesse braid 3. Everything else Pitchin'/Flippin': 1. Berkley Fireline braid Quote
mainebassin650 Posted August 3, 2010 Posted August 3, 2010 After using Power Pro for years, I tried Stren Sonic Braid, and haven't looked back. X2. It casts a mile and outlasts most other braids I've used. Quote
