Metered braided line - jigging line

Pros / cons
Brand one better than the other?
Color bleed?
Am I looking for a specific length between colors?
Domestic brand versus high end Japanese import?

Who's using which and are you happy with it?

Domination takes full concentration..

I've used and like the Daiwa Saltiga braid. I think it changes color every 10yrds. Also just saw that Daiwa has a color-coded version of their Samurai braid. Expensive though.

I've used diawa boat braid, It's very nice, breaks right at box rating. Also started using a tufline hollow color coded. It seems to be good and is splicable.
