Thinking of switching lines, Berkely "fire line" any good??

Was wanting to step up to a heavier duty "super line", was wanting to know about the fireline, is it any good and how do you like it if you use it? Any complaints or likes / dislikes?? Thanks for any replies.

I have heard a lot of good things about Power Pro, and if you are thinking of spending that much on Fireline you might want to consider Power Pro also.....lots of people on this board use it...I have just put some on one of my rods, but have yet to put it to good use....

Where do you order Power Pro from? Does Cabelas have it? Thanks.

We get ours at Cabela's, Prefer it to fire line.

Just ordered some. I hope it isn't like some of the other "super lines" that are a magnet to all the little floating, micro trash on the water. Some of the other lines i have used does this very thing. I only want the line for vertical fishing, guess i'm just ready to go to some other kind of lines. I have been using Wally Marshall line, it is pretty good line but i just want to try something different to say i've been there and done it. Thanks for the info. guys.

Anytime...I still use a good bit of that Wally Marshall line..I really like it especially for the price......I use 90% of the time his 4lb test, but have recently tried the 6lb and have been very happy with that as well.

But, just like I have said I have also just spooled on some Power Pro, so I can't say yet what I think of it.....

My dad and one of my uncles use Fireline all the time and they seem to be happy with it. I prefer Spider Wire in braided line, just personal preference no real reason, I've just always used it. My other uncle and I prefer mono and I'm becoming a fan of the Mr Crappie

I bought a spool of Berkley Fireline and a spool of Stren Super Braid. I liked the Stren way better than the fireline. It's all personal preference really.

Might want to put on some kelvar gloves if you get hung up and decide to pull on the line to get the hook free. That line will tear up you hands before it breaks.

That is why I haven't become too big of a fan of those superlines/superbraids yet.....
