Power pro line

[fishingaddict]

Has anyone used the Power pro fishing line on spinning reels?? I am wondering about memory issues.

Thanks

If you are refering to the power-pro braid, there should be no memory. It is identical to the older Spiderwire, 100% Spectra.

I used Power Pro for all of last year on a couple of my rods and absolutely love it! I wouldn't be afraid to use it in a whole bunch of applications.

Power Pro is my new favorite line. I used it all last year on spinning reels and baitcasting. No memory whatsoever and it lasts a long time too. I would highly recommend using it.

I personally haven't used it yet but I bought some at the Muskie Expo when a good friend of mine(he is also an Abu Garcia rep) said it's 100% better than Fireline. I'll be switching

Good stuff maynard. I use 8# on a jigging rod for deepwater or heavy current situations, I still prefer mono on spinning tackle except in above situation. I use the 20# on bottom bouncer casting rods, 30# for Catfishing on the Red and Sturgeon fishing on the Rainy, and Pike fishing LOW. All my Muskie rods are filled with either 50 or 65#. I do still use 14# fireline for trolling cranks, seem to get less bite-offs from those darn LOW jackfish.

Thanks to everyone who has replied regarding the power pro line. I guess I will force my self to spend more money on fishing stuff. I will buy some this week.

Melt ice melt. Lets have open water.

thanks again Fishing addict

Comparing Power Pro with Fireline is comparing two different types -- Fireline is fused, Power Pro is braided.

My favorite braid is Whiplash, which is made of the same stuff as Fireline, but is braided rather than fused. It is great on applications such as Dipsey Divers, bait casters (bass, walleye), and heavy stuff (pike, muskies). Fifth pound Whiplash on a casting reel is as easy as 12 lb nylon braid.
