    Default Trouble finding right line.

    As always I have trouble finding the right line. Was out this weekend searching for the new red power pro, in 30lb, 300yrd spool...

    couldnt get in anywhere, then decided to try the suffix braid in green, same thing couldnt find 30lb , 300yrd spool

    had to settle for the moss green pp (no complains but would like to try the red/suffix simply for the new "feel" that i have heard so much about)

    i dont like to have my lines spooled @ the stores because i dont always trust the employees to do it correctly, especially at dicks or other similar sporting good stores

    anyone else have the same problem finding braided line of their choice?

    I get the 1500 yard spools in 20, 30, and 50.
    B & N's had them for $90 last time I was there.

    Where were you looking. I've got everything mentioned and I will glacly fill your reel from the Suffix filler spool so you can send in for the rebates.

    I've been selling the red and I'm not sure of the advantage, but it does look good on some reels.
