Yep, spot on.
Power Pro is simply the best. Whiplash is too frail, good for casting but has terrible abrasion resistance.

I use the 30lb on centrepins and small fixed spools, great line
Have pp from 30-100lb over various reels, it is a bit industrial but holds up well

Berkley cb2000 connect 35lb straight through to a short leader of your choice, neutral buoyancy, thin, casts an absolute dream and strong as an ox. Thats how I got best distances if your not worried about heavy sinking. It is also not too expensive. Berkleys lines are fantastic!

Obviously will use tubing or leader but interested in what make of braid users recommend for distance fishing ?

Out of all these braids which is best for maximum range casting as a mainline in a moderately weedy but snag free lake ?

Maybe ok casting a lure but trying to bang a 4oz lead 100 yards.....................I'd wet it 
@ Bradders
I use the 20lb (0.16) with a leader for longer range work (as far as I can tell it's exactly the same as the Korda stuff) with that diameter hitting the clip hard with a heavy spomb at shorter range isn't a good idea so the 40lb should be perfect.
@colors
I would say at least the 50lb stuff (0.36), if you buy it in the UK it may have a different BS rating so buy by diameter

What lb power pro would everyone recommend for fairly weedy lakes?

Me neither. No need to wet it at all and I've been using braid for all my lure fishing since the mid 90's.

Which 8 carrier brand is best for spodding

In reply to Post #18
As with all 4 carrier braids it is prudent to wet them before casting, the 8 carriers not so much but then they aren't as tough therefore better for the spod rod

With the Powerpro does it require continuous wetting of the braid before casting?

Not 100% sure I want to go down the bait boat route, have bought 3 in my time and got rid, just wasn’t happy using them.

Why use braid if you can use z baitboat? I would use fluorocarbon.. get it out decent way and sunk all the way back..
Braid if you must my fav was fox submerge in 40lb
