Berkley Big Game Braid?

rrw4258 · 01-19-09, 03:48 PM

I was on Berkley's website and found that they make a Big Game Braid... anyone have experience with this? I use the mono on a everyday basis but was wondering about the braid. Price is not too bad either.

Not bad at all.I might give it a try as i'm in need for some line.

Best Bang for your buck is Sufix Super Braid. It's 6 strand vs Power Pro 4 strand. Casts further, less nose, and almost no tip wrap.

I agree with Joel. Power Pro may be cheaper, but I don't think you can beat Sufix Performance braid. Very smooth handling, and very quiet compared to other braids.

For all you braid guys... this is good stuff. I've tried it and like how well it casts. I use it for fishing frogs in thick vegitation. Little expensive but I personally think it's better than Suffix or Power Pro. JMO!

I went a little crazy last year with trying to find the perfect line. I realized that I need to just pick one mono, one flouro, and one braid that works for me and stick with it. For me, the types had a lot to do with what I could find on sale at the particular time.

I've got a few friends who are also 100% braid guys, and they use the most expensive Japanese braid. It's just great line. So is the Daiwa braid. Unfortunately, it's just to expensive for my budget. When the price falls as it becomes a mainstream braid, then I'll once again switch brands.

If you guys like the suffix braid and think it as good as power pro then i will give it a try..I am looking for a color besides moss green for worm and finess fishing.What have you all seen in different colors??

Sufix comes only in fire Red and Green. I prefer the green as it blends in with the slightly stained waters I fish.
