I'm considering giving fireline a try on my VS250.

I've been using braid since converting from mono, but i've heard good things about fireline... i might give it a go.
Huge fan of original Fireline on my VS. Have not had a break off in over 2 years. Well, I have but that was on the Penn with Power Pro.

Fireline is perfect for fishing rocks as it has much more abrasion resistance. I have lately been fishing barnacle covered rocks and catching 20 - high 30 pound fish in heavy current and not had a break off yet.

Did I mention that I hate Power Pro? No?

I hate Power Pro.
