it is good stuff a mate of mine is using it at the moment and he hasn't had any problems with it.

I've never used it but if your interested fishing world magazine are offering a 150 yard spool of Sufix 'tru-braid' in 4.5kg (RRP $79.95?) if you subscribe for 12 months $82.50.

Sounds like a fair deal to me but obviously the lines too heavy for Bream 0.12mm for my liking but not bad for Snapper, Flatties and manu other species.

I think my subscription ends this month so I'll be re subscribing

I'm using sufix performance braid 6lb on several outfits and really like it. Haven' tried the orange Neon fire. It handles great, seems to wear well. Had some initial trouble with leader knots but changed to the slim beauty and problem is solved.

I was really happy with the 6lb in Aus and then put a full 300 yd spool of 10lb that I purchased locally on a 2500 Daiwa advantage and the reel took the whole spool plus 20-50yds backing. Ended up buying another 2500 advantage from the US and bought a 300lb spool of what appeared to be the same 10lb with the order. There is a significant difference in thickness between the imported and the local stuff. The 300yd of the import stuff didn't fit on the spool. Still handles well just disappointing that I didn't end up with both reels setup the same per my plan. Not sure whether it was old stock from the US or one of the two spools was mislabelled or what but I would check specs to local stuff before buying.
