Never, ever had an issue with 65# PP...I love it. I use it strictly on my conventional setup.

I use 40# and 50# on my spinners.

same here, at least for bass. 50 gives much better casting performance. I do have 65 on one big spinner for tuna. Although I am thinking of stripping it off and going to 50 on that just for more capacity.

If 50 is spooled properly you won't have that problem, 65 is over kill IMO.
