SUFFIX!!!!!! Its smoother than any line I have used. Braid on the fibers is so much tighter than the competition.

I use a lot of Stealth;but if I'm dropping big jigs through grass in 30 foot of water I like Terry Oldhams Lynch line.It is a white braid so I camo about 10 feet with black,red and green magic markers.Then I put a black area about every 18 inches until It is marked to about 35 foot.It only takes a few drops to know about which mark is bottom contact.If it stops to soon you know it and if it goes to deep it might be a fish.Really a supple strong line.

It is 8 strand braid, instead of 6. It is amazingly smooth and SUPER STRONG! It is a little pricey, but out performs Power Pro by a LONG shot!

I have tried many of the others mentioned above, but BPS's Excel in 30lb works for me. Sometimes it is used with a floro leader.

been a HUGE fan of spiderwire stealth for years(even use 65#test offshore for tuna fishing with 22# of drag). Gonna have to try the samurai stuff out, seems it has some good recommendations!

We use swivels with braid and fluorocarbon leaders for Tuna all the time. It's no different from fishing a weightless Carolina rig. Spro makes a black stainless Super Swivel that will handle anything you can dish out.. very small and 220# teast.

Just make sure you Do Not to reel the swivel into the rod guides... you can use a plastic bead above the swivel to keep that from happening.

There is no braid like Sufix. Power pro is a close 2nd and it is cheaper but not as smooth or round.
