If I'm rowing I want everyone in the boat to be using hi-vis.

If I'm casting I use Maxima Chrystal Ivory as I can see it. Especially spoon fishing so I can see the wobble in the line belly.

I rarely use a float so I rarely use braid.

I anchored a moving drift boat with 30# Power Pro, I wouldn't say it's easy to break off.
