I think I have one basket set up with that stuff. It is a parachute cord, not sure it is 550.

I know them very well! Do not use it.

I use 1/4" braid right to the dart .. no problems at all. Just tie a bowline about 3 feet above dart so you can remove rope if dart goes through fish or lodges inside. Very simple and effective ..
