*2, Power pro super 8 slick is awesome! Normal power pro and suffix 832 are also good.

Power pro slick here also.

Suffix. BTW, there is a forum for this. You may get more responses there.

^^^Now why did you have to go and do that? We had something going here...

Thanks, looks like I'm picking up some power pro super slick!

Sorry, you need some alone time??

I like original Power Pro, although I'm looking to try some 832 soon

I'll put in another vote for original Power Pro. The couple times I've spooled with Super 8 Slick I didn't like how it behaved compared to the original.

Power Pro original in yellow is my braid of choice. Given how expensive braid is, I'm not biting at the bit to try 832, others. I have spent a lot of money on braid and kept coming back to original PP, so that's where I've stayed put.

 

Not that I won't venture out an try something new in the future, mind you!

Power Pro (original & S8S) and P-Line. I'm really looking forward to trying their new 8 carrier braid. 

I'm going to be the odd one out in this thread but i like sunline FX2

Original power pro for me. Been using it for a long time with no troubles.

Purchased 832 recently to try because of all the people I hear say how great it is. Nothing bad to say about it but it's nothing special. Seems noiser to me honestly.

Hi seas grand slam braid.

Don't favor any brand.  I've done just fine with every major company's line, sale price gets my attention which seems to be PP most of the time.

Sufix performance braid. It's somewhat noisy, but doesn't seem to be as affected by wind and tip wrap in my experience. Don't care much for the 8 carrier braids. They may be quieter, but are to soft and limp for my taste. I tried 832 and it seemed grabby. The Ss 8 frayed like crazy. Original power pro is too rough, so I found a happy medium with performance braid.

Tuf-Line Tournament 8 is my new favorite.

 

Others include Kanzen, Sufix 832 and Tuf-Line HeviCore

I'm partial to PowerPro and the new Seaguar Smackdown.

For spinning I like Fireline the best.  For casting, Power Pro.   The lighter PP line always seems to get wind knotted on a spin setup.  Fireline wil last for years on a reel.  Heavy PP wokrs great on a casting setup.
