Shimano Purchases Power-Pro
News has it that PP has been sold in its entirety to Shimano.

Don't know what that means to the product, but maybe (LOL) the price will go down.

Im sure it means that quality will do nothing but improve. And if it doesnt, just call their customer service. This could mean free PP for life.
Everything is better on the rocks.

I heard the same thing a while ago...I just hope the quality stays the same for me as I ahve had no problem with PP.

I used PP a lot last season and was impressed. Had 50 and or 65lb. on my 220, 7500, 145, and red 7000. I hope it will still be made in the states.
