Spooling up a couple of my reels. Any feedback?

Good stuff

Like it better then the power pro and I think it's quieter
Only bad thing I can say is the green color doesn't stay very long

I use the 10# and the 30#

I use 832 on one of my baitcasting reels.  I like it, but it does tend to get those little fibers hanging off of it whereas the regular sufix braid doesn't.  Seems stronger though. I wouldn't use it on my spinning reels only because their regular braid is rounder and lays better on the spinning spool than the flatter 832. I use 20 pound for everything.  Whenever my swimbait/frogging rod needs respooling, I'll be using 832 instead of the regular sufix braid.

Thanks guys, I spooled one of my bait casters with #30 and ran it for a couple hours at my local dam today and after a good 200 cycles I did see fading in the color but the abrasion resistance is as good as its claimed to be. Overall I'm impressed with the braid.

I run the 65# on my flipping and frog gear and love it.

I used 832 in 30# as my mainline on a spinning rod for catfishing.  Very strong and sensitive.  I've also used the 65# for topwater and flipping.  Overall I like the Sufix a lot, but I think that the original Power Pro handles just a little bit smoother.

Weird, I dropped power pro for sufix after the sufix was just so much easier to handle.
