I'm up in the shop doing some cleaning and organizing. Currently going through my old line to see what I can throw out. Back when I bought this line, I seem to remember that people were having problems with it, so I never spooled it on a reel. Am I remembering correctly? ![[Linked Image]](https://texasfishingforum.com/forums/pics/userpics/2024/05/full-13-223419-image_67189249.jpg)

If you are running backing on any of your reels it might be good for that.
