I just started using (and selling) Power Pro - So I guess that makes me "Pro-Power Pro"

I like it, but to each his own. The Power Pro website lists some tips that are very helpful.

I also listed some tips for using it.

With spinning, they suggest you close the bail manually (unless you using VS, which has no bail, of course) and pull the line tight before the retrieve, I guess the stuff can get loose after the cast and then you wind in the line over the loose wraps - this leads to the bird's nest problems.
Still, it is very popular and selling well locally. I think a big part of the problem is that the kids behind many counters just spool it and ring it up without a word of advice.
