Is the J braid 8X new?
Samuri is very quiet for braid. I was impressed with it for the lack of noise and it seems very slick. Yessir, the 8X Grand is fairly new. The castability is great, I have become a big fan. I love the grey color. Same for me. Mark informed me of this. It’s the best I’ve used. I like the gray in 50 lb. It is smooth, quiet and holds a knot well. It’s the must supple braid I’ve used. Very manageable.

Power pro is ok, but there is much better. Sunline plasma is much better, less noisy and doesn’t dig into the spool like power pro. I’ll check it out. Thanks.

Justin Lucas recommends the Berkley X5, I have been using it on my dropshot rig and it is great.

There may be better out here but I have never had an issue with Power Pro. I have even taken it too Canada for large Nothern pike and never had 50 pound braid ever snap on me. Thats with drag all the way on.
