Very happy with the Fireline Crystal - much better than last year's fireline, with none of the powder coming off on the hands and tattiness of the line (after two outings!)
I always manually tighten the line when I close the bail, and haven't had any wind knots yet.

I currently have 30 lb loaded on the reel with a 50 lb mono leader, with no complaints. On one hang-up it was the leader that had a clean break. Surprised the hell out of me.

I had been thinking of trying the Berkley braid, but could not find it being sold anywhere at the start of the season. Come to think about it, still haven't seen it!
