braid brand?
Anyone ever used dyneema braided line? I'm looking into buying bulk for my reels and power pro is getting expensive. Are there some other alternative brands out there that work well?
and no i dont want to use mono.

Give a googan a king, and he can eat for a day. But teach a googan how to kingfish, and he'll be dead of mercury poisoning inside of three years

More reviews @
Dyneema braid - The Hull Truth - Boating and Fishing Forum
I'm not a big Power Pro fan anyway after trying it a couple of times in the past.
I found it too limp and subject to wind knots.
In the course of this year I have experimented with Spiderwire Stealth (30# and 20#) and like it OK.
Recently put 8# Invisi Braid on one of my ultralites which I really like.
It is fairly expensive but is available in bulk spools (1500 yds) @ about 12˘ / yard.
Hope this helps!Mr. Cleland and leen like this.(RETIRED) mostly.

Power pro is all I'll ever use when I can afford it. Suffix I use most of the time for freshwater applications(I.e. pulling big spawning bass out of cover)

+1 on power pro, and I tried Jerry Brown once and liked it pretty good
I figure it this way, if everyone in the world had a lie clock, whose hands moved once every time they lied. You could use any politicians lie clock as a ceiling fan.

I would stick to a brand that has actual quality control, preferably a tested brand Paulus Just fishing
"It worked for me" is not a scientific test.

Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
