I'm putting the set-up on some TLD 15s (baitcasters) for wreck fishing for C-bass, 'Togs, & flounder out as far as 20 fathoms.

Thanks for the tips everyone.

The other thing to remember is that if two fish cross each other out there with those lines, the braid parts immediately. Tough with guests....But the benefits speak volumes so I am sticking with it, hope the Stren is better.
I bought a couple Avet MXL's with the Stren Super Braid for chunking, bottom fishing this year. Same deal, the guys at TD recommended it, so it is in the rotation this spring. I'll let you know how to performs.
