What braid do you guys use? I'm getting ready to spool up a few ABU 6500's. I have used Power Pro and Sufix and both have held up fairly well. I noticed the Team Catfish Tug O War braid also. Any suggestions?

I am swithching to 40# P.P. from #40 Ande Green Envy and the reason is the shelf life is longer. Welcome to the forum OGOD,[that's your name backwards LOL].

Been thinking about making the switch, just for the shelf life, but the initial investment keeps making me put it off. Ive got 9 reels I wanna switch, but it would cost me over $100 to do it. May start doing one each time I respool.

It would cost twice as much that way. If you are gonna switch I would buy the 1200 yard spool. I bought one last year on sale
