Funny I get the windknots bad with 30lb pp.The 50 never rarely knots if ever.I think it depends on plugsize,plugweight,rod and reel.With the plugs I chuck mostly heavy most up to 3 the 50 works good with alot of action.A friend tuaght me emery cloth the lip on the spool a couple times a year I also cut the bail wire off and hand feed the reel so I can see and feel the loop of the death.

Since you're getting some new line for cutty you might as well treat yourself to some sufix 50#. Stuff is just amazing.

Hmmm-I wonder why I don't have to do that with any other braid?
