I just purchased a new spool of 15Lb braid called Sufix ProMix Braid for a Smallmouth Finesse Rod I am setting up. I have used Sufix 832 and their Performance Braid and like them both but I bought this because the store where I found it had it on sale for $11.00 ($4.00 off reg. price). Let me add that I also use Power Pro on several spinning rods and it works fine too. From what I can find out, Sufix released ProMix mono in 2016 and this ProMix braid was just released this year (2021). This is a new ProMix line. My question is, "Has anyone had any experience with this new braid?" Any insight would be appreciated and I'll share mine after some in-the-field use.

First I have heard of this one.

As a long time 832 fan, I am interested.  Went to TW's site to check it out.  The description indicates that the ProMix braid has "buoyancy".  Which could be helpful for topwater applications but could end up being less desirable for some sub-surface deals.

Looking forward to learning more.

A-Jay, Thanks for the input. I use 832 on my Frog rod (40Lb.) and I love it too. The only drawbacks I can find for 832 are that it seems to fade in color more quickly than Power Pro and it is pricier (typically $2-$5 more for 150 yd. spool). The fading does not really bother me because I see no effect on its performance. This new ProMix is supposed to resist fading more than previous Sufix braids if that is important to some fishermen. My belief is that this stuff will replace Performance braid because I am not seeing that on shelves very often any more. I think the Sufix 832 is will continue to be produced ... I hope it is anyway. 

 

 

Sifix ProMix braid is the only braid that I've found that I actually liked.

 

I've tried literally everything.  Power pro, power pro V2, fireline, spiderwire, etc.   The suffix stuff is my favorite by FAR.

 

Somehow, it feels rougher than the power pro V2, but much quieter going thru the guides.

 

It also hasn't lost any of its color and I've been using it for 2 months.
