I use 44lb Power Pro straight through.

Had the Berkley Whiplash but twice I snapped off in a short space of time (maybe a bad batch as many I know like the stuff), never had the issue with Power Pro though.

I like the Daiwa J-Braid x8, same as the Korda Spod Braid and never needs wetting.

Brought this on your recommendation on another thread last year, served me well so far I just finish it off with a 50lb shock leader

On one reel I have the 0.16 20lb version which is the same spec as the Korda stuff and on another the 0.20 29lbs version, not a lot between them really, use a 50lb Whiplash leader with them. Casts really well and as I said it never needs wetting

@Leonparadise89 good stuff isn't it

Are you sure?
