I don't like it.It's too strong and you can't get a feel for how hard your pulling.Manufacturers are so way off when they call it 30 pound or 40 or whatever.It's way past that for breaking point.It breaks at times for no apparent reason as well.At least that power pro stuff does.I think a lot of rods and reels and terminal tackle gets broken with that braid stuff.You should never fish a line that exceeds the deadlift capabilities of your rod.Some guys have even bent they're reel pulling real hard on a fish or a snag or something.
It's easy to straighten out your hook too.
