Braided Line Input Needed

Guys-I have been using Power Pro in Hawaii. I was using it on a TLD-30II, straight 80#, all the way to the 8 foot 200# mono leader. The spectra was breaking not infrequently, and I guess I will have to bump up to 100. It was about dropping down big baits and waiting for the big Aj's and ulua & shark to hit, they are really deep on this one ledge, like 400 feet down there. You know how long you have to wait for a 4# bait to swim down that far, even with 8-10oz of weight? Anyway, I am not so fond of Power Pro, it seems to flake a lot. Why they coat it with that, I dunno. I am looking for another brand- maybe even something that is multicolored so that I can track the movement of line. Thanks in advance for the advice fellas,
Jon Schwartz
