Chef:
I love it. Strong and no memory at all. It is a bit thicker than, say Big Game but I don't notice a big difference in casting distance. The fish are usually in th first curl anyway.
BTW, I have it on a VS250 and a Calcutta 400.
I had Big Bear Sporting Goods get it for me. It wa $43.99 for a 1lb spool. 2400 yards

The Ande BC line is of type "floating" according to epinions.com and
Berkly has only one floating type which is the Berkly XL.
The Berkly Big game is classified type "specialty".
The reason why it never breaks off in the rocks is that it floats more then it sinks.  |
