            Heck! That makes it some darned expensive line! LOL
            Always use a mono or flouro leader with braid. It'll keep that from happening.
            I do like braid, but I'm not too sure that PowerPro is the right one

              Power pro is fine fins a little better but you gotta get used to using a looser drag with braid

                              You got "Sure fired". Anytime you set down a rod, look away, light a cig, mess with something-BAM, that's when the fish will hit. At times of slow fishing, we have one guy light a cig, another open the cooler and the other mess with the radio-someone will always get a strike.
                              "Hey Hillary, regarding the Benghazi Attack on 9/11-we'll just blame it on that movie, not my total lack of security. By the way, what's so significant about 9/11 anyway-was that a date my buddy Bill Ayers of the Weather Underground blew up a government building?" asked Obama to Hillary. BEAUTIFY AMERICA, RUN OVER A LIBERAL, THEN BACK UP AND SEE IF HE'S DEAD.
