When it first came out myself...my son...and nephew used it exclusively for over a year....pretty much 5 days a week. I have used 2#....1#.....5#....6#. I don't think they make 1# test anymore. The 2# test was perfect for casting a 1/64 Trout Magnet....casting distance is unreal with the line. I always use a fluro leader. The line has no abrasion resistance at all. Keep in mind I didn't just use this just for crappie fishing but for all my fishing......catching smallmouth...Gills.....white bass....KY bass, and trout. I fish a lot of deep rocky reservoirs. The sensitivity is great...as with any braid. Line manageability is excellent. I still use it from time to time. As has been stated the line has no stretch. One of the reasons I quit using it so much was when fishing for shell crackers in a mossy area. When the fish would get wrapped up in moss since there was no stretch in the line the 2# test would break as I tried to pull it all back to me. Using mono in same situation I could get the fish back to me because it would stretch allowing me to slowly pull the fish over the moss. I have a love hate relationship with the line now. Casting...sensitivity....line manageability are great.....using it with or without leader in rocky reservoirs is asking for a lot of trouble. If you tie direct to lure...hook...jig, you need to use a double Palomar knot.....there are others that will work but a single Palomar will not.
