Is it good? Bad? So so? What's your take on this line?

had good luck with the 40 and 50lb. absolutely indestructible! did not have good luck with a spool of 30lb 'camo'. not sure if it was a bad spool or what.

I use the high visibility yellow (15#) for my spinning reel setups. Works great 👍

Nice for cutting through pads and grass. I like it on a frog rod and for pitching to thick cover.
For me, it’s not supple enough for my preferences with other presentations—that’s when I use either regular power pro (mainline for Trig, etc)or superslick for more finesse.

I bought a spool of it for my frog setup. At first I didn’t like it all that much because it seemed a lot stiffer than power pro, but after it got broke in I love it and haven’t had any problems with it.

best braid for your money. Have never had an issue with it, smooth and casts well. Doesn't cut veg as well as some 4 strand braids, but overall it's really solid.

It's all I have used for a few years until I tried Daiwa Grand J-Braid.

I used suffix 832 for years then switched to P Line TCB braid. Its a teflon coated braid, casts further and quieter. Better for my finesse techniques

I’m sure there are better braids on the market but I’ve been using it for years and happy with it so I see no reason to try any other.

I have used this braid a lot over the years-caught many big fish. Performed well for giant peacock bass, big largemouth. Reliable and tough. Fades of course. I use mainly 50-65lb. I don’t do finesse stuff so idk-yuk. Not comparing to any others since like hulapoppin I just have been happy with the results so no reason to change.

I use it mainly for C-Rigging since it has a strain of Gore in it to help it sink. Most Braids will float. If I punched heavy mats of grass, I might use it there.

It as the first braid I tried and after a while I noticed that I was getting a lot of wind knots with the lighter weights.. 15-20lb. I switched to Berkley x5 and like it a lot better.

Except for Seagur Smackdown for Finesse, 832 is the only one I buy. Casts great never and issue.

Strongest braid in my opinion. All I use sight fishing and frogging
