Also interested to know. I plan on putting the 4lb on a couple of spools.

Im going to re-hash this and hopefully get an answer.

I am wanting to put flurocarbon straight through on my spare spool and I was thinking about this one.

Does anyone have any first hand experience with it, or something better.

Thanks

Shortly

I tried it briefly in 3lb and ended up getting rid of it for knot strength issues.
However I do know of others using it that are quite happy with its performance.

Thanks for that Smitty, I appreciate the input.

Check out Andrew Badulavich fishing on Facebook . He runs it on one of his bream set ups and swears by it. I'm after a straight through fluro in 4lb so I may even give it a go

Thanks for the replies.

Creek Bandit, I have read his blog and his thoughts on it, but just wanted an "outside" opinion on it as well.

Hey that's me!!! Yep, I've been running the brave in 3lb for a few months and it's performing well, no major issues with it at all
