Hi guys. Anyone ever used this. Saw some a week ago, felt super smooth but know nothing about it.

Re: Sufix braid.
I used suffix before, not that particular model though.
I found suffix is pretty thick. I am a fan of Sunline now.

Re: Sufix braid.
Yeah mate, I love their XL strong mono but never used the braid. Was cheap $19 so might check it out. Will wait though in case someone here has tried that one and has a comment on It. If not I'll give it a go.
Hi mate, this stuff felt really thin and smooth. But I'll admit against some info several months back I thought that D8 J/Walker seemed OK and got some. But it casts like rope

Haha yes, i know what you mean. I've tried those cheap braids from BCF/Anaconda and they were terrible.Brownie wrote: ↑Wed Feb 20, 2019 9:31 pmYeah mate, I love their XL strong mono but never used the braid.

I think the suffix i had was suffix832 or something like that. Was durable but thick as. No issue for heavier than 30 lb class, most braids are thick after 30lb anyway.
For 10lb or less, smoothness and diameter matters a lot. Sunline or even Spiderwire are good for 10lb class or less.

Re: Sufix braid.
Yeah, have some Spider wire code red, has faded a bit but has stood up well, 3 yrs or near that. Some Kairiki as well, thats about 6 mths old. Faded from the bright green to a more light, dull weed green but that I dont mind as it blends in well. I'll keep an eye out for Sunline on my next shopping trip though and check it out. :thumbsup:

Re: Sufix braid.
Love suffix braid, in the lighter strains it's excellent for lure fishing, thin and strong as. I spooled a heavier set up last night with 50lb braid, feels a bit plasticky and rigid off the spool but sure it'll limber up after a few chucks
