I have always used the Loaded XT and didn't understand oldgeezer, who said it doesn't behave well. I always used 18LB though. This year, I picked up a spool of 15LB and have to say it was absolutely terrible compared to what I was used to. So much so that I have re-spooled with the regular XT after only two sessions.
Still waiting to test it, but pretty confident it will be fine.

I'm going back to the 15lb xt,like an idiot I had my head turned by the new TA OGX line.What a mistake that was,the OGX is not even close to the XT,it does not cast,sink or behave anywhere near as good as the XT.Im sat on the bank now and just had all the line bunch up for no reason at all,had to strip 30 yards off and start again.At the weekend it's coming off and back onto 0.37mm XT,the best mono on the market imo

Wow glad I went the route of the XT - nearly got sucked in by this one, too.

Is that the 18lb Tony?
Never used XT but not had any of those problems with the OGX so far (fingers crossed). Was a GR60 stalwart for a few years and prefer it to that.

Yes it is the 0.37 same as the esp xt at 15lb.I have never had a mono do that in all the years I have been fishing
