The Sunline FX2 Braid is awesome. Here is part of the description from the American Legacy Web Site: www.americanlegacyfishing.comSunline FX2 Braid starts with an 8-strand polyethylene/polyethylene terphthalate construction bringing perfect round uniformity to the line. This results in a slick surfaced line that casts great distances, glides easily thru rod guides and won't dig into the reel spool when battling fish. The 8 strand design creates a super-strong, abrasion resistant line with extremely low stretch and virtually zero memory. If you are looking for the best bass fishing line available look no further than Sunline FX2 Braid!

power pro will uproot trees that ain't no joke. i've pulled up several trees with bass attached to them after they though't they'd be slick and wrap up in one after hooked. gotta use backing if you don't want the spool to slip, it also helps against digging in but won't 100% prevent it

Power Pro is my choice,
But may try the wal-mart $8 stuff if its good I may switch.
Any braid I have used digs in, ecspecially if you pull a hook out of a tree or horse in a fish. You will have to pull out the line.

Dig-in is going to be a problem with most baitcasting reels. The only ones that Ive found that substantially reduces this problem are the Abu reels with the Triple-Cross levelwind. This levelwind system causes the line to lay on the spool at a substantially sharper angle than any other baitcasting reels that Ive used, and thus the line lays across the line just below it. This prevents dig-in.

Any of the Suffix is all i use now, I had Power pro break too many times. I found the 20# and 65# PP to be the best when I did use it anything in between was not so good. The new suffix is realy awesome but a bit over priced imo.
