Problems with new conventional / power pro???

[lurch]

I have been using 30lb power pro and I am having all kinds of trouble with the reliability of the line with premature breakoffs and fraying line on my new 6500 mag elite.

I also get one very small rat nest but that nest seems to go way too deep into the spool. I have been using conv for over 15 yrs but somthing seems odd with this line.

I also use 40lb power pro on my 704z and 30lb on my 965 before, is it just defective 30lb line? I will admit that I did buy a 30lb bulk spool for the first time so I am not sure that this makes a difference.

I guess I can pick up some mono and compare the results....seems very odd though.
