Have some reels that need new braid. Figuring 65lb braid and 40lb mono top shots. Recommendations on braid? Have paid a lot for power pro in the tackle store. Anyone bought or got good deals and where from?
Cheers!!!

look for coupons I just picked up two 300 years 50lb and a 300yard of 65lb from sportsauthority.com for like $45 shipped. I also just got 200 years of seaguar floro leader from jiggyworld for $48 shipped.

I get my reels spooled at SquidCo. I like Power Pro due to its abrasiveness when fishing around kelp.

in the beginning I use to find deals on braids but the problem is you have to put it on yourself. Which is really hard to do right. Save yourself the grief and go to a tackle shop and do it right the first time.

x2. The last thing you want is to have your braid "digging" into itself.
