I felt that the sonic braid was really soft and squishy

I have been wanting to try the shock absorbing for my top waters. How do you like it?

Haven't used it on my top waters but for every other application it works fine and no complaints so far

FYI - I tried PowerPro Slick over the past weekend and had the same results as when I used Fins - i.e. I had three separate instances where the line just popped with the last instance occuring on the spool.

Will be sticking with regular powerpro from here on out!

Plain ole PP is the way to go, I hated that Slick 8 crap!

I don't like the super slick either. It doesn't hold albright knots very well.

Phew... Bought a fresh spool yesterday and was about to get the slick but they didn't have the lb test i wanted so i went with regular. GLAD i made the right decision.
