For the past 6 months I have been buying just about every brand of fishing line on the market to see what I would like to use for different ocassions. I have not tried the Yo Zuri but I have just order some; but cabelas has the D.A.M. Tectan which I have been using now for the past month and i like this line a lot too. It is smaller in diameter and the knot strength is very good. It is made in germany and orcas in B.C has the full line of mono and braid made by them. You can check out their web page, its something different if you are in the market to try out a new line. It is very comparable to the Maxima.
And if you dont like it you can return it and get your money back
