Good morning,i am thinking about using the daiwa floor it soft in 18lb on my power Aeros,talking to a lad I know and he says he had heard that it's not great on the slow oscillation reels,as the turns are tight causing it to mis behave on the spool,as anybody experienced this,many thanks

I used it for a couple of seasons, i found i needed to use the spin doctor every 3 trips as it twisted quite bad but did well using it on a clear water. Swapped over to rigmarole FLX which is much softer, casts better and sinks like a brick.

I've used both the standard and super soft floorit.

The standard was possibly the worst behaved fluro I've used but the soft version is the best. IMO better than XLine, Tiger, Fox Khaki which are the others I've tried.

Unfortunately I haven't tried the Soft on a slow oscillating reel but if any fluro was to work I don't see why this wouldn't. I use it in the 18lb also.

You will see a lot of negative comments about this stuff because of the original's reputation but it casts brilliantly and so far seems durable.
Are you sure?

This action cannot be undone.

Yes, continue
