Durability

Pros:

  • "Love how durable the line feels and it feels like it has a very thin coating over it to help keep like floating on water and overall abrasive damage reduction."
  • "The 15LB has been holding up just fine for inshore."
  • "I have been using this brand for over 2 years exclusively on my light tackle setups. I fish fresh and saltwater, at least 75 outings a year. I’ve only had to replace the line twice and only due to the spool becoming too small from break offs over time."
  • "Holds up well. We also put it on a load cell and tested the lb load. It’s accurate to label."
  • "This line is great and really strong, I’ve pulled really hard on some big fish and this line hold up great."
  • "Been really pleased with this braid. Bought the 15# for my bass rod and it was great, so got a spool of 10# for my backpack rod."
  • "It’s very strong and durable."

Cons:

  • "Braid was weak from day one. Set the hook and it snaps. Freas like it is over stressed."
  • "I tie a fg knot and this line will snap when I pull the leader tight."
  • "The end seems to fray a lot."
  • "On only the fourth time out using this line I lost 3 lures now, costing me double what the line cost."
  • "This line is by no means the test it says it is. I bought a spool of 80lb test and it was snapped by a catfish that only weighed 12lbs."
  • "It brakes over and over and over with less than 10lbe fish ! I can actually brake it with my hands !"
  • "Very weak 100 lb line. Frequently snapped on me with very little weight."

Customer Service

Pros:

  • "After making contact with a company rep who was very helpful and interested in my concerns she believed as well that I may have received the incorrect product. A second spool of line was forwarded to me at no cost."
  • "YES, YES and YES you should buy this line. Best line for the price and the Customer service is NEXT LEVEL."
  • "These Guys know about fishing and they have a great customer service!"
  • "Excellent seller. Outstanding responsive customer support!"
  • "Their awesome customer service team called me directly and explained that to me and sure enough that's where my line awaited me. Thanks again."
  • "Chad was on top of this and a new spool is on its way! great service and the line is super awesome!"
  • "The sell contacted me and wanted to make the order right. They sent me another spool of 30# this time it was 1000 yards."

Cons:

  • "Was to mad to take a photo…but when i opened the bag the box was ripped open and the spool was coming apart from the inside and not from the end….lost around 300 yards of line….."
  • "I was so disappointed that the product came on a smaller spool than advertised."
  • "This is the only line I use. I was very disappointed to find that there was a cut right in the middle of the product."
  • "While hooked up to a shark lastnight the line snapped right where that oddity was."
  • "I recently bought a 1500 yard spool of 65lb braid for a upcoming fishing trip but received it all tangled up."
  • "After throwing away hundreds of yards I started to find knots like two pieces of line were put together."
  • "Seems decent quality, but about half way through spooling my reel I ran into 4 knots within 6 inch's where the line had been tied back together."

Color and Appearance

Pros:

  • "Color looks bright and good looking."
  • "The red dye hardly fades I used my finger to put resistance behind spooling my reel up with the braid and was completely happy/shocked to see hardly any coloring on my finger only red I saw was from the pressure of the braid on my finger which slowly disappeared."
  • "Colours are a great mix and match that change throughout the roll every few feet!"
  • "Well I loved the blue color. The price is great."
  • "Overall feel and diameter consistency felt good, the short white markers between colors is nice."
  • "I am very happy with the color I chose as well as the performance."
  • "Because the color changes every 10 feet, it makes it easy to know how deep is the water where your fishing just by counting the number of colors."

Cons:

  • "Line is thicker than other premium braided line and color bleeds on hands when loading reels."
  • "It fades fast I finally put the new line on the other day it fades fast and looks like it's been on there for years."
  • "The color of the line faded out in 2 fishing trips with being cleaned after trip."
  • "Got the green color. Faded to pale yellow after a day or two."
  • "The dye used does come off on your fingers so I'm not sure how long the colours will last but they look lovely !!!"
  • "It’s definitely a good tough fishing line only problem is the dye in the line comes of on your fingers when putting the line on or fixing a birds nest stuff like that."
  • "I’m spooling this up on my rod and I realize my fingers are covered in blue dye. I don’t know about the other colors but blue camo is not color fast!"

Value for Money

Pros:

  • "Stop overspending on Power Pro! Pick out the color and size you like and buy it."
  • "2 stars because it's affordable and the 15LB seems fine."
  • "Guys, I’ve been always a powerpro guy but just from handling this braided line, I think it's really hard to beat the price."
  • "If your ok with that this line is ok for price."
  • "It’s a really good deal. It does exactly what it’s suppose to."
  • "But strong enough and priced right."
  • "Braid Is often quite expensive, especially in larger quantities. This braid is not only affordable, but significantly durable and extremely high quality."

Cons:

  • "Its not any different from any other spiderwire fishing line only difference is u order one spool and its not even the yardage u asked for nor the line size."
  • "I was so disappointed that the product came on a smaller spool than advertised."
  • "On only the fourth time out using this line I lost 3 lures now, costing me double what the line cost."
  • "Well I ordered 500 yards of 8lb line seamed like the better deal compared to pro line I have on one reel. After getting this product today I knew I got ripped off on yardage."
  • "I attempted to save a little money, but cost myself more aggravation."
  • "Bought this for my husbands catfish pole. Was so disappointed....especially when it stretched and broke with the first fish."
  • "I guess you get what you pay for. I wouldn’t recommend this braid to anyone."

Performance

Pros:

  • "I am now a believer in only using braided lines. This line was easy to string and casts great."
  • "I've only taken it out fishing a couple of times and it seems to work well, good casting, pretty quiet and stealthy."
  • "I'm pleasantly surprised. It's not slick smooth, but it casts really well and is pretty durable."
  • "casting has excellent distance with minimal curls and no fouling because of wind etc."
  • "Easy to work with. Cast is very smooth, get a longer cast from this braid than some others I have tried."
  • "It came off the spool without spiraling and settled well on the reel after a couple of casts."
  • "Not only did we get a few nice ones the line performed perfectly. Knot strength was spot on, nice long casts with not knotting up."
