Line for new reel

bassinbob · 01-21-07, 12:22 AM

I am going to Bass Pro tomorrow. I normally use Power Pro. I wanted to get some for my new reel which is going to be used for buzzbaits. I was reading about Sufix. Any thoughts on Sufix or another brand of braid. Not that I want to switch from PP. Just might like to try something new.

Bob, I haven't used Suffix braid, but Dodgeguy has and has had nothing but good things to say about it. That's good enough for me. Next time I have to respool with braid I may try it based on Dodge's experience.

Thanks guys. Time to hit the road. Long drive to Bass Pro from Pittsburgh.

I hate to talk about line, because everyone disagrees with everyone. Again itspersonal opinion. When you buy a line, there might be defects in the spool, or it may have sat in the store for 2 years. You never know what youre getting!

I've been using Stren Super braid all year and really liked it. My buddy, who also used it, loved it but decided to try Suffix braid and decieded to change. he said even as smooth as the stren was, the suffix was that much better. I trust the guy and well I might have to spool up a reel and see for myself.

Well I got the Sufix 30lb. I'm going to spool it up on the Revo and as soon as there is a break in the weather practice throwing it. I'll let you guys know how the Revo does and how The Sufix casts.

I'd sure like to get a revo after reading the reviews. let us know how sweet it is bob

bassinbob · 01-22-07, 06:13 PM

JB. They are sweet. The price isn't too bad either, IMHO. I've got big hands and it feels just right. I'll let you know asap.
