Power Pro
I have used braided (spider wire) lines for several years now on both
spinning and casting reels. I don't think I'll ever go back to mono. I now use power pro 4/15 on my spinner and 6/20 on the baitcaster. Love it. Netguider

Power Pro
My 2 cents:
Diameter on braids may be much smaller than equivalent LB test mono, however diameter to equivalent diamter mono cast farther. In other words, 10/2 powerpro does NOT cast as far as 2LB mono. I attribute this to first the surface of each line -- mono has to have less friction than braid -- it smoother. Second, my guess is that diameter and weight are 2 different matters. Braid is heaver for a given diameter than mono (speculation on my part). Anyone want to weigh a spool of each and report back? -Steve
