Make sure you have plenty of pressure on the line when you are spooling it cause your problem definitely seems like you are not spooling tight enough. I tried some other brands of braid and the only one I like as much as powerpro is Berkley Fireline, but it costs more then powerpro so I don't buy it.

i tried fireline once.. Its more expensive and it SUCKSSS!! Don't ever get it! Its real hard, doesn't cast worth a crap, and really rough on the rod eyes. It is probably the stiffest of the braids. I can't see how anyone can like that stuff. Might as well just spool on some wire.

My plan is to hook a 9lber first thing and let it run for a bit then reel it in, that'll get the line tight on the spool!!!

I hope your plan comes through dink...
I'm ready to get out there though, I hope the water isn't chocolate milk!
