Default HEY BASS BOSS!!!

You sir, are a King among men. Long have I hated Stren and been able to do little about it. I have been reading your endorsements of PowerPro and decided to try it.

It is the greatest line I have ever used in 15 years of fishing. Put a 5/0 Gamakatsu EWG hook and a Gary Yamamoto Kreature bait (watermelon) on my spinning reel. 4 bass over the 7 pound mark, and 6 over 5 lbs in about 3 hours.

My thanks to you sir. As I have bought my last spool of Stren.

What's wrong with Stren? It's always served me well. And I'm certainly not alone, as Stren continues to be one of the top-selling brands of line. ???

Lots of us swear by power pro. Heck they could start their own amateur team just off this site.8)

I've used different lines throughout the years , but Stren has it's merits.
The Stren Fluoro. is a good line as well as the Stren Heavy Strength. With the heavy strength you can pull the boat around so as to not bother your partner when you get hung up !
The fluorocarbon is soft and casts well. Great with crankbaits in 10lb test. I also use the fluo. with jigs (20) and with worms (17) With top water and rattle-trap type baits I use the heavy strength in 14.

Glad you made the switch. Now I will send you my contact info on where to send tribute. ;D

As they said though, others love it too. I cant take all the credit on this one.
