I turned steve on to the line and now he loves it, why? its twice as abrasion resistant than big game, it has less memory, it cast smoother, my frequency of line changes has went down because the line simply hold up better. When I used big game the abrasion from my thumb alone while casting conventional was enough to nessesitate a line change every other trip, not so with the backcountry, I have had nothing but an overall increase in reliability , castibility and fish fighting power using the ande....
