Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

Awesome stuff right here. I was looking for a cheaper alternative to PowerPro or Sufix, so i figured i'd give it a shot, and test it out. Here's what i found Pro's: 1- Price 2- Strength; tested 100yrds in 3,5,10,15 feet incriments (3 times each length) and averaged ~16.6lb breaking strength. Would be higher, but a couple of the shorter length tests broke at the knot below 10lbs (likely my error). Highest was 17.25lb 3- SUPER smooth casting. After several uses in saltwater (without rinsing reel/line) the line never got stiff, and casts as good if not better than PowerPro Super 8 Slick 4- Durability is phenomenal. Got tangled up in oyster covered rocks, 30lb mono leader was broke and the portion of braid that was tangled up was a little frayed, similar to what PowerPro does after using it for a while. Removed it to test, and it broke @ 12.75lb. Pretty good considering how tangled up it was. Con's: 1- There is some black stuff on the line (invisible-grey), not sure what it is. Not REALLY a con, just annoying when you are trying to spool a reel and hold tension on the line only to look at your fingers/hands after to find black everywhere. So far, it seems to have rinsed off. 2- After the black stuff rinses off, the line changes color to more of a light blue. Not really a con, more of an observation. Overall, i'm pleasantly surprised, and won't be using any other brand ever again. A quality product at half the price? Yep, that's for me. Edit: Purchased the 50ld and 10lb since my review - excelent stuff. Holds up like it's supposed to.
