I was using 8lb Seaguar Carbon Pro yesterday for fishing crank baits in weed
beds with some trees all day yesterday. The stuff is incredible. I never
had a fish break me off. I had to break off a coupel times by hand, and int
he water the stuff is tough. I cut my hands a couple times when I had to
break off for one reason or another. Hwne testing the stuff in hand the
knot seems to break like any other 8 pound line, but I can pull the boat
with it in the water. I am just so impressed with this stuff its
unbelievable. I may even spool a couple spare reel spools with this stuff in
6lb for fishing deep ultra clear water when I go to Meade or Powell.

I have used this stuff in weights from 8 to 20 pound and its pretty amazing
stuff. Yeah its expensive buts its worth it. On my spinning reels I have
taken to breaking off the first couple feet and retieing before a
tournament, but I don't respool until the line level starts to get a little
low to cast well. I haven't been disappointed by it even one time in any
weight. The stuff is amazing. I doubt I will ever go back to mono as long
as I can get it, and its available. I think I actually save money since I
don't find myself respooling every time I go out anymore.

I use 15lb for casting / pitching wacky rigged stick worms into heavy cover,
and amazed my partner at pulling out 3 and 4 pound fish with it. Its just
good stuff. I do this with medium heavy fast action St Croix spinning rods.

I have a couple of my flipping rigs spooled up with 20lb. When I need that
little extra distance or that little extra stealth I'll but down my rig
spooled with PowerPro and switch over to one of those rigged with CarbonPro.
Soemtimes it makes the difference. Especially when I'm fishing out of
somebody else's boat. I feel sorry for somebody fishing out of the back of
my boat though. If I accidently back boat them or the wind and curent
conditions prevent me from positioning the boat they are going to have to
come up to the front deck, becasue this stuff pitches further than any other
line I have used without going to a much lighter line.

Seaguar CarbonPro. Five Stars. Two Thumbs up. On a scale of 1-10 I give
it a solid 10.
