The expensive brais from daiwa are all very smooth from what I've heard. You guys have just confirmed this too. Time to get some of their braid too.

The daiwa tournament braid is very smooth as well (wind knots are easy to get out lol), but I have found it frays over time and weakens significantly. Be interested to see if you have the same issues.

I have the 30lb of 300 metres on my 4000 sized reel. This one:

I guess it depends on expectation of usage, but probably one of the smoothest braids I have used.
