Hello all , the time has come to replace my TFG banana Braid, that stuff was amazing never ever let me down , i was gutted when i found out its no longer made, my question is what is the alternative? being such a good braid is there anything that comes close,, i usually use a braid straight through so not loosing any feeling on my marker set ups, can any recommend a braid for marker/spomb , Thanks 👍🙏

can recomend the aliexpress braid,use the 0.32mm 8 strand 40lb bs (sometimes its rated 0.32 50lb)from a different supplier .500m about £4,80 plus 20% import duty.
look around for a deal that give free delivery over £8 spend (before tax) .usually buy the hybrid lead clips (rind or quick change)£2 for 5 or run rig kit drop off system £2.40 for 6 to make free postage.look out for CHOICE products that offer this deal
