That's a lot of great info! What do you like about braid or have you not stuck with it?

The Nanobraid in 2 lbs and 4 lbs is probably equivalent to 0.4-0.6 Japanese PE, depending on manufacturer. Any PowerPro product will also be much thicker and stronger than listed – more so than the Nanobraid.
Take a look at DUEL Armored F+ Pro 0.06 PE, Gosen Light Game 4 in 0.15 PE, XBraid Upgrade X4 in 0.2 PE. Varivas Light Game 0.15-0.2 PE and Sunline Small Game HG 0.15-0.2 PE will be a bit thicker in the same sizes. All are great and truly thin braided lines, the last three are easy to find. The first two are the thinnest, in my experience. Want to go high end? Varivas Avani Saltwater Finesse X8 in 0.2 PE, YGK Lonfort RealDtex in 0.3 PE, Sunline Egi Ult HS8 in 0.3. As far as nylon, fluorocarbon, ester – any JDM line will be true to its listed diameter and breaking strength.

P.S. Forgot to add Daiwa Gekkabijin Si2 in 0.15-0.2 PE – also great ultra thin braided line.
