... for carpfishing with solid PVA bags, I am currently using Korda hookline braid and leader braid too
I was looking into the SUBbraid and Apex but I don't like the minimum 0.30 on SUBbraid and Apex availability seems to be off in my country.
The Fox subbraid also seem to have a lot of bad reviews so it's not worth a try given the price imo.
What would you guys suggest me? Thanks

I am using an Ultimate PRO-8 braid as mainline right now but it is too big of a diameter for my reel (0.30) and I don't have enough line on my reel...

Korda SUBline, 20lb, 0.43mm, Brown or Green.
Been using this for quite and never let me down.

0.43 dia I'd be shocked if it had let you down.

so he needs BELOW 0.30 to get enough line on his reels

Unless you need it to sink fast my choice would be Power Pro in 30lb. Unlikely to find a braid that sinks well in much less than .30.
I guess the advantage of braid is that it will bed in and behave better on the spool than mono. Just don't overfill the spool to avoid wind knots when casting.

Personally I'd be looking at getting better/larger reels. Those things are pretty small. And then you can use the braid you like and get enough on the reels

So many variables to this. What rod you using, how far do you fish, how far would you like to fish?
Also can you cast as far as you would like to fish.

Have you tried daiwa j braid x8 30lb is .2 and 40lb is .24.

Thank you all for the recommendations, I am fishing with PVA bags mostly, got a carp rod and yes, I can cast wherever I want basically because I have a bait boat able to carry the hook too. I think fast sinking is perfect for PVA, isn't it ?
