Braided line recommendations

[Spunt Drag]

I have spiderwire 20lb braid on one of my rods and it's strong and casts great but it seems like it ties a knot around anything it touches. I'm lookin for something different, let me know.

Try Power Pro Super Slick 8 . I think all braid is bad about knots on anything it touches though.

Power pro.... I don't use it on anything I cast tho, I Use it strictly on a flipping & pitching set up.
I used to use some called Lynch Line that came out not long after the Spiderwire craze hit. That was the toughest crap I've ever seen! Up rooted several button willow bushes by wrapping line around the cleat on boat & pulling with trolling motor wide open! Straightened several bass jig hooks. Don't think they make it anymore. Haven't seen it in years.

Try throwing a 30lb braid. Has a little more weight and stiffness which will help to keep it from kinking and wrapping up on everything. Also reduces reel hang ups/backlashes. Power pro has a waxy coating (at 1st) and last a long time. I've thrown other rods spooled with 20lb braid and I was constantly getting small backlashes and having to fight it from looping around the eyes while working my bait.

I like the power pro slick 8. Also try the Seagur Kanzen.

Suffix 832 30lb on everything i got...

I've got 30 lb braid on several spinning reels, and they wrap around anything and everything. Never seen anything as crazy as what a braid line will do when you cast it.

Suffix 832 and Fins is what I use and never had a problem with either. If I had to pick one I would go with Fins it's very smooth and never had knot problems.

Inch Spinner, You use 30 for castability and less knots or you feel like you need that much strength?

This is exactly what's happening, I'll try some heavier power pro. Thanks for everyone's post

Yep...thats all I throw. The suffix is nice but I keep going back to the original power pro. Used 50lb a few times too just sinks too slow.
