Berkley Iron Silk

I enjoyed using the Iron Silk. I found just as mentioned here that when
there is significant pressure put on it, it breaks. Additionally the
knots do not bind well. Not sure why, but it does cast excellently.
Personally I think that it is better than Sensation, I have had very
poor luck with Sensation.

Steve - Since you mentioned the raving endorsement of Power Pro... Do
you ever have troubles with smaller diameter Power Pro (Like 20lb)
pulling through the fold of worm hooks (@ the eye)? I have lost more
fish than I care to remember because of the line pulling through the
fold in the hook. I pull my line out and I have a beautiful Palomar
knot with no hook or sinker.

Apologies in advance for posting on another topic, I will repost if
desired, with appropriate subject.

Bryan,

Yes, I do on occasion have that problem. I've found that if I periodically
check and make sure that the knot is at the front of the hook eye, all is
well.
