The Suffix Tritanium is not a braid. Looks and feels like mono, but I think it's considered a fusion type line. I've never been a big fan of Power Pro. I really gave it a fair chance but it seemed to fray on me a lot. I do like Fireline for zero stretch and excellent casting qualities. The Cortland Spectron is also excellent casting, has a slight stretch capability and excellent wear and abrasion qualities. I have about 75-100 yards of 20lb mono backing with 300 yards of 50lb Spectron on a 330 GTi. I've never tried the Spectron on the Penn SS reels. It may cast good, I don't know for sure though. I know Saltheart is a big fan of Spectron for casting jigs in the Canal.
Anyways, that's my .02 worth. I'm sure others here will give an exact opposite opinion. I'm happy with my choices though.
