THANK YOU! Much, much, much appreciated. You guys rock!
Based on the test results (
http://www.paulusjustfishing.com/4linetesting.htm), 80 lb Power Pro Slick 8 breaks at 105.02 lb and and 80 lb Suffix 832 breaks at 92.1 lb.
80 lb Power Pro Slick 8 is available in 1500 yard spools, which makes for efficient line spooling and minimal line waste.
50 lb Fireline has an insane breaking strength of 119.7 lb. Unfortunately, this line is very difficult to find. 30 lb Fireline is as pervasive as the seals in the outer cape.
That said, these test result make sense, given the chemical composition of these three lines. Yes. I was a science geek in college.
Y'all have been like wicked sup'ah helpful and stuff. ;-)
