50 to 65 lb braid

I'm looking at 50 lb braid for the striper spinners and 65 for the boat rods (3-waying eels).

Suffix is the only other brand I tried and I liked PP better. But, there is Tuff Line, Daiwa, Jerry Brown, etc.

I switched all my reels over to cabelas ripcord si braided line, 50 lb test. I love it.

Ties great, lays nice, doesnt shred my gloves right away like pp. Its about half the price of everything else out there too.

Ive been fishing it two seasons now and havent had any issues with it.

I love it and its all I use now.

I only fishing spinning gear.

Try Berkley Big Game Braid. It's smoother, and more abrasion-resistant, than Power Pro, and it costs about the same.

I liked Stren Superbraid too, but it's been discontinued and replaced by Stren Sonic Braid, which I've never tried.
