I use it on all my spinners and have for about four years. Never had a problem with breaking or with anything. (I use Suffix on the conventionals.) PP will tear up your hands if you're not careful, especially in lighter weights (as stated in earlier post). But its strength, sensitivity, round confirmation (many braids are flat), small diameters (amazing casting distances), and slick surface (casting distance due to lower drag) are well worth the impossible occasional bird's nest, IMO (I don't even try to pull it out when it happes, BTW, and just pull off line and bird's nest, cut it off, retie, and keep going. Oh, and yes, I pocket the cut off line and dispose of it properly--that stuff would shred any critter that got tangled in cast off bunches of it.)

I don't think it was mentioned in earlier posts, but the virtual absence of memory in PP (and most other braids, as well) is a big plus, also, at least to me.
