I would like to know if anyone has used this line to cast lures in the surf?

What are your opinions on this line?
Does it meet up to your standards or what?

I seen the regular braided spiderwire spools are only 100yds and there's another line called spiderwire " STEALTH" which you can get at 150yd spools.

Looking forward to your comments.....

I use Power Pro most of the time and am trying Tuff line for this coming season since it is less expensive and I heard is even better than Power Pro. However, I have heard some very good reviwes about Stealth.

I have Spiderwire on my freshwater gear and love it. It is my favorite braid (I've only tried Fireline and Power Pro). The reason I don't have it on my saltwater gear is because of how expensive it is.

I bought it about four years ago becuase I wasn't happy with the knots in Fireline. The stuff was great at holding knots, and casting. It is extremely limp and has no memory, just some big bucks.

Use backing on a large capacity reel to cut down on the cost.

Actually, in the long run the "superbraids" are more economical since they last far longer than mono. Mono needs to be replaced constantly. Superbraid line can last for years with no problems, even under heavy use.

Thanks for the all the info.
Picked up a 150yd spool of spiderwire stealth 20lbs test 6lbs diameter at walmart.
Plan to use this on a 9ft breakaway rod with a brand spanking new Tica reel.

I normally would use Fireline but wanted to try this new stealth line.
I already experimented with power pro and that was a zero...
