i agree there seems toi be a widenig gap in the tackle world.I too seem to be caught in the middle.I am also from the old skool of thought when it come to spending money on tackle.I make alot of my own things an basically are pretty cheap when it comes to spending large amounts of money on gear.I can however spend ten dollars fifty times.
I use kite string on my conventionals have been for yrs.80 lb an 50lb.its by far the most abrasion resistent.I was lookin at the stren.not sure which model for the canal.30 may be a little light.it looks nice but after some bad experiences with some braids I am reluctant to change.
