Was very cheap 1,000 yards for 40.00... I mean I havent fished it yet... but I would say the quality is there. I tied a uni knot to my swivel and really put some ass behind it and locked the knot down id say about 50 lbs of pressure. didnt break. i got a 10 lb bonita... he will be freezer burnt by the time i use him but i plan on putting him out next monday... so hopefully next week ill be able to review the line better... my only complaint was there was a few flat spots in the line at the top of the spool which is now the bottom of my reel.. literally like the first 3 yards.... but tight lines.

i may order some when i get some extra cash. i went off of accurate line calculator and it said it should hold 1400 yards of the 100lb. how many yards did you fit?

I checked this stuff out and was looking at the diameter's its not much smaller than mono. About twice as thick as power pro, I'm guessing thats why its so cheap.
