Cheap Braided Line?

Featured Replies

Regular PowerPro is cheap and they're very good, i had mine for 2 years now and not a single problem. You can find em at your local walmart for less than $15

US Braid $9.96 at the wally

How is it working?  I bought some Zebco braid a couple of years ago, haven't had any problem with 20# on one of my cuda set ups, it's slightly thicker.

 

I'm sure it's possible to get a bad spool of any kind of line, I can't recall it happening to me.  I've used a number of brands of braided lines, PP is my most used because of the convenience and price.  I don't see enough difference from 1 brand to another for me to take to issue.  I do the same thing that everyone does, cast and retrieve except most my target species are different.  I use 15 and 20# braid, if I'm having no problems landing 40 or 50 and have caught bigger tarpon I'm sure not going to have any problem bass fishing with the same line.

People are pretty quick to blame the bow when it was the archer's fault.

Its been perfect so far. It runs up to #50 from what I've seen in store. I bought some #40. Its in orange so its easy to see if you need to watch your line for any reason. It actually runs in the same diameters as Power Pro, the omniflex was thicker in diameter than power pro was and you get 150 yards of US Braid rather than 130 of the Omniflex. Worth a try, its definitely priced to move and made in 'Merica
