Location: NorthCentral WI | I've been using MasterBraid for a long time but just picked up two spools of Sufix 131 last week to try out this year. The 131 is pricey stuff, but I got it on a good sale and will see if it's worth the extra money. |

Location: S.W. WI | 20 plus years using braid for Muskies. I go 2-3 days every weekend. 90% of the time I've been using Power Pro. Zero failures. The 10% of time using others have had all of my line failures. Most of the supposed top brands have failed me, in a bad way. Coincidence? Not in my mind. Everyone rips Power Pro, but I don't let it wear and fray, reverse on spool annually, cut off last 10 ft. every month, Zero issues. |

Location: Brighton CO. | I've used different Cortland lines over the years and Power Pro Maxcuatro and they all work well except when in the late fall when the water freezes your line to the spool. On my Bass/Walleye gear I use Spiderwire. |

| I’ve used more braids than I can count. I’ve gone to fins and I love it. So smooth and strong. And no water shed. |

| I am a huge fan of Cortland Masterbraid. I don't normally fish the late fall part of the season. I say that because the only drawback with Cortland is water retention and freezing when temps are in the freezing range. |

| I have tried a few different brands of braids thru the years, Spiderwire , standard power pro, suffix 832, tuff line and a couple others. One thing I didn't care for about power pro was the rather quick fading of the color, but that was a couple years ago. I tried another braid that was black and white a few years ago that I didn't care for, it was loosely braided and started getting fuzzy or fraying much quicker than others, it may have been Tuff braid. I would like to try Cortland's Master braid and Hi-Seas Grand Slam. Back around 1987 when I first got into musky fishing braided Dacron was probably the best and most popular line. |
