Thinking of giving it a try, not a big fan of braid but it may be ok if its not to loud in the guides.

Pretty thin, but I love it on spinning gear with a 5 foot leader.

I fish a lot of rocky areas, Nanofil along with traditional braids have a low abrasion resistance

On Baitcasting gear?

If so, do you have any spool digging problems on hooksets, and is it noisy in the guides?

I have the 30lb on one of my curados. I like it. It casts pretty good and I've caught a ton of fish with it. Still have the same jig head tied on from about eight trips ago.

I use it. I bought a citica from a guy online and he had it spooled with 40# or 50# yellow super slick. When I first casted (sp?) with it I was like "wtf, did he oil this string?" so I emailed him and he said it was super slick. It ties fine and lasts.

I just put 20# green on my revo. Probably a little too thin. Also when I spooled it, I didn't wind it tight and I birdnested it pretty bad and had some dig-in right off the bat. Took all the string off and reeled it in while holding the string with my fingers and had no issues with it out on the water Saturday.
