PowerPro, in general, may be fine. I, and others, have had problems with the white, bead-store version. A powdery substance flakes off (probably wax), and it has a tendency to "snap" when pulled tightly, for no decernable reason. I'm not sure if this is due to re-spooling, or if it is inherent to the variety. Another thing-- the bead-store packaging is quite a bit more expensive than the fishing packaging. Same product-- cheapest I've seen the bead store version is $4.50/28y; brand-name PowerPro fishing line is about $12/150y. Kaytee "Simplexities" on
