Looking for a soft braid for hook lengths, currently use the Avid Pin Down and like it, but I now want something a little thinner as the Avid is only available in 20lb and it's not the thinnest. ESP have the Anchor braid and Camo Sink Link both in 15lb - anybody got any experience with it, are they any good or got any other suggestions?
I've tried both of those you have mentioned and both are good but I prefer the Korda supernatural in 18lb. Just as thin but I prefer the colour and it's more supple as well.

I use the ESP anchor braid mainly for solid bag rigs I think it's brilliant. Sinks like a brick.

Use the anchor braid a lot, decent stuff, tighter weave than the sinklink which I also used for a lot of years

Sink link is excellent, very supple and abrasion resistant. I tend to use 25lb in every situation, it's that supple and thin, I believe doesn't make any difference.
Tangles easily though like all soft braids.

You really want a supple braid that's not too thin or it can act like cheesewire. I've used 18lb supernatural which is ok but not the most supple. It does get better with use.
