You see, fishing is not only about catching fish. The different stories behind scenes sometimes are as interesting. -

I personally have a ton of line right now that I need to use up and so will not be able to post a review but for those who try out or have tried this Eposeidon/Kastking please continue to post your experiences. I want to try out this line once I am done with my thousands and thousands of yards of unused braid. Haha, sorry about the grammar. I didn't pay much attention to my writing while posting at forum. But now that I know someone's reading, I should write better. -

Thank you! Did you really read through my research? It's a bit long, and I admit it's too long. You can read the first article I quote. I did learn a lot from the Australian guy. Anyway, better prepared guarantees success on the water -

It is week 11, and they sure don't look like a playoff team that's going to get past the first round, if they make it. Remember the last Ravens and Giants? Anybody would think of them as a superbowl runner at the second half of the season? I believe it's a good thing to experience some down time now so that they'll bounce back in January and go far in the playoff.

After seeing the comments, I decided to take some time and do the test myself: What I have at hand: Power Pro braid 30LB Vermillion Red KastKing braid 12LB Moss Green, 50LB Blue Berkley fireline fused original 30Lb I don't have that many equipment as the guy in the video did, so I just took them to the gym and use dumb bell over there. (I thought this is a smart but weird idea. I can use the exact weight dumb bell to measure. But guys at gym looked at me like what he's doing, but I don't really care) Improved clinch know is what I used Surprisingly, except the kastking 12LB, none of them actually hold up to the label test LB, and didn't break at the knots! I tried three times each brand Power Pro breaks at about 24LB averageg (30LB labeled) Kastingking breaks at 45Lb(50LB labeled) Berkley fireline at 27(30Lb labeled) KastKing 12LB actually breaks at 15Lb... (*edited - please don't post commercial links here, we don't allow it. TimS) Finally, I did online chat with eposeidon customer service as they are the only one that I can get a hold of. Here's their answer "Braided fishing line consists of four strands of fiber, and is not a single line like Monofilament. If the knot is not appropriately tied, the force is not evenly spread through the four fibers. If some of the fibers bear more force then it will break. We recommend that you test other brands of line in the same way you tested ours, (such as PowerPro or Spiderwire). Other customers have tried this and found that the lines snapped at the same pulling strength. This proved it is only a problem of measurement. Some brands, (like Power Pro) have a thicker coating outside the line which holds the 4 fibers together. When lifting weight or pulling on a scale, their line performs slightly better. However, underwater performance is very similar. Our line has a thinner coating and is more flexible in water allowing the lure to move in a more natural way. In addition, it keeps the price of the line lower for our customers. " Now after a solid study evening, I would come our with my own consumption. Here it goes: 1.I don't care what the brand name it is, as long as the braid is made of the similar material, it should be good. (I'm not talking about the cheap braid on eBay from China). 2. I'd check the lines while spool braid line on the reel. Any brand is not perfect, there might be some weak spot to caused line snap. 3. If you fish with thick cover or vegetation, stay away from PowerPro. (The wax is easy to be rubbed off, and then the line is very weak.) 4. Sufix is different, they use dyneema fiber + gore fiber, that's different. I'm not sure how good that'll be, but the price is even higher. 4. I'd keep trying KastKing unless I have some bad experience. Above are my findings. Hope they'll help. Happy thanksgiving! -

If without this thread, I'll never know people are really digging out this company and put a lot of efforts to test out this new brand. #RootForUnderdog -
Let's face it. People work at Post Office get paid way more than UPS or Fedex truck drivers.

Cool, thanks -

No one has done it before. So if any QB can win 2 champs with different teams, I think that means the QB is really good.
