I have used several branded carp fishing braid, but for me the best proper sinking braid is Hydro-Sink. Was going to try the Noir but my ordinary four-year-old green version (now rather faded, it has to be said) still performs, so why bother?
PowerPro is a very good braid, but it doesn't sink too well (Not supposed to). Brilliant for the river, though, fishing tight to a heavy lead.

Sufix 832...I have two spools with it on but only used it once at the tail end of last summer. It sinks but not the ultra fast rate or whatever the advertising says that it does.

I have been using PowerPro, in 40 or 50Lbs for about 4 years.
My waters have horrendous, and unknown, snags, so the lack of sink element is probably a plus for me.
I use it on my French trips (big fish weedy water) as well as in the US, suggest it is worth a look for anyone who wants to avoid carp taxed braid.

I've never had a problem with it floating at all, caught bags of carp on it last year and catfish to 58lb. I have 6 spare spools filled with it and it does me.
