Philip 1 This stuff is rubbish, don't waste your money. The first time I fished with it, I had a few backlashes and when pulling them out, found the line had kinked severely, not just the normal kinks you might get in a line. Later, when I had another backlash and pulled it out, the line had broken INSIDE the backlash and the end came out in my hand. I was careful handling the line and was not pulling hard at all, I would never use this line again, even if it was free.
