I tried samurai for a bit, broke a lot on me compaired to similar sized suffix braid. I would put 10lb suffix strength wise vs. samurai 15lb any day.

I'd have to see that test.......I have a hard time cutting it with clippers, much less breaking off!!!!

Bmt......you wont regret it......best line I've ever used. Only problem I have is tying it. Its so small.......I use the 20lb so it doesn't dig in to bad......oh, and.you gotta spool it on here REALLY tight......

Default braid

Do not use clippers on any braid. use scissors or blade.

Got my wade rod in, amazing again is all I can say. I went out this evening and fished for a bit and caught some trout up to 23" and a few keeper reds. They worked perfect and are light as all get out!
