philsoreel Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 Got it in 40lb. It has some body to it right off the spool. Kind of a PowerProish coating. Went to the front yard first and made about 15 casts. First cast was unimpressive, a little rough, but that faded quickly. Pitched with it for a little bit, thought it was pretty neat how you could see the single gore fiber(little white dots) after it broke in some. Got in the lake and the dots disappeared when it got wet. Casts great, no backlashs, sensitive....looks promising. Not saying it won't break-in more and become smoother but it's not as smooth as Samurai so far. Doesn't sink as quickly as I expected but no big deal. More later.... Quote

northern basser Posted December 18, 2010 Posted December 18, 2010 I also got the 40# right before the last day I fished this fall. I used it on just that trip and was initially impressed also. It was a little stiff at first, but it didn't take long to limber up. Come spring I'll be able to do more comparing to PP and make a decision of which to use. Like most braids, they don't give the stuff away for free! $19.99 for 150 yards. Quote

No, it's not free but it's a lot cheaper than Samurai. I went ahead and got 300yds for $34.99. They sent me two 150 spools instead of a 300 > I'll end up with some wasted lined off both off them.

Super User Crestliner2008 Posted December 20, 2010 Super User Posted December 20, 2010 I've read the articles on this new sinking braid and plan on getting a spool of either this or the 'other' sinking braid, Spider Fluoro-Braid. It's yet another great tool from the fishing industry. IF, it lives up to the hype! The presentation options are becoming endless! Quote
scaledriver Posted December 20, 2010 Posted December 20, 2010 Ok this might be a silly question but here goes. If this braid does sink will it still be a good braid for fishing like hollow body frogs? Quote
