This is one for the experts out there. We all know that most monofilament lines ( unless they are I.G.F.A. rated) break way over the stated pound test on the box. ( That's whay it says that so and so's 12 lb. test is the strongest 'cause it actually breaks somewhere nearer to 24 lbs. not 14). Anyway, how do most braids stack up as to stated pound test and actual breaking strength? For example, I use ten pound power pro on an 8 ft. St.Croix Tidemaster light spinning rod for throwing Sluggos to shallow water bass on the flats. This past week I caught a large number of bass in the 38 to 40 inch range in the mid=teens to low twenty pound range from both the skiff and walking the beach and sight casting and never had a problem even with the knob screwed down fairly snug. I am looking for hard facts if anyone has 'em. Thanks in advance for your help, Flapster.
