Yep, Surfstrand is a brand and is available at J & M.
Stik, I would call J & M toll free first and find out about ordering Surfstrand from them at (800) 483-7069.

Surfstrand is actually a product name. AFW (American Fishing Wire) is the brand and happens to be the best IMO and only brand I use. Get with John he'll hook you up.

where in TN??? i am in chattanooga.....

i use 30 lb seven strand have used a couple different brands. can not say one better than the other. also i love to use single strand in 27 or 30 but usually from the kayak when i do..... i have been bit off with 7 strand some but i think there are days when "if your going to get bit off, youll get bit off with an anchor chain!" i have a few days like that...

Visibility, I guess.

The knots will slip and the plastic coating is easily cut by toothy fish.
