[QUOTE="thad., post: 168286, member: 4331"] I'm looking forward to trying the bright orange Sufix. I can't go back to mono, either. When I first started using braid I was fishing with an older buddy of mine and he had a lot of belittling comments for my newfangled line. We were fishing for specks on the bottom in 25 feet of water. It was blisteringly cold and they were just barely pecking our jigs. I could feel it with 10 lb Power Pro and he couldn't with his mono. I missed the first few but then got them zeroed in. I told him, "You need Power Pro!" He told me he had been fishing in this spot since before I was born and and didn't need any. After the first couple I left him alone. When I had put ten in the boat and he was still blanked he muttered, "So you got any more of that or what?" I did and he spooled some on top of his mono. Right after that a guide in a big fancy bay boat pulled up right next to us with a whole boatload of people. We put them in the boat one after another while they watched and thought they weren't getting any bites. After about the tenth time his clients asked, "Why can't we do what those guys are doing?" he cussed, cranked up, and left there full throttle. :mrgreen: That slowed the bite down for a few minutes but they picked right back up and we soon put our 50th silver wonder in the box and headed in.
