good lord, you dont use braid if the cost bothers you

mono is very cheap and works just fine, no one "needs" braid, its a luxury item

thanks for a quality contribution
- Cost isnt an issue. Ive been using PP for years all on my reels. If someone cant afford braid over another string then they should be at work, not fishing
- i like braid. Want to try something different.
Move along

I started with braided using Spider Wire but that shite was expensive. Once I got introduced to Power Pro, I've stuck with PP ever since.

Bunch of cheap Chinese knockoffs on eBay. Never used them, so I don't know how good they are.

dont use Bass Pro brand. Its flat cross section for some reason and sticks/binds on itself when using baitcaster

Power Pro is made in the USA. Buy local.

I like my PP and haven't had any issues with it. Just wondering if I'm missing out on any under the radar brands

not a knockoff brand I guess but Sufix 832 is the best line I have ever used. Has never broken on me.

No I didn't. Only asked if there were any quality knock offs since I haven't looked outside of PP in 5 years. I never mentioned affordability.
