Are wind knots interrupting your fishing day?
If you are fishing in windy conditions, or even if you're not, chances are you've had a wind knot or two (or ten).
We've tested out the best braided line on the market right now and in this video, we break down the science behind the braid, pros and cons of each brand, and if line color really matters.
We also discuss breaking strength (knots), casting distance, if Luke's hair is tougher than 10# braid, 8 strand vs. 4 strand, and why sometimes it's best to stick with what works for you.
But it's true: not all braid is created equal.
If you want to know which braided fishing lines have proven best for inshore saltwater fishing, even on windy days, tune in!
So what's your go-to braided line for any condition?
Let me know in the comments!

Just tried 20 lb J-braid Grand (Gray Light), and so far it's been A-mazing!! Smooth casts, amazing sensitivity, and awesome hook setting!! Will be spooling all my higher end spinning rods with this exact braid and color. I had it straight braid with no leader and caught three large mouth back to back!! They must not see this color. Love it!!
Nice!
Glad to see a real world line report, l tried j-braid grand and also had a horrible experience with wind knots switched to original Powerpro and the issue went away
Great video, thanks for the expert reviews on this topic!
I have a few that have color match braid and now im loving the camo spiderwire. The majority have powerpro but my new jig setup has the Japan pe line an its held up well. Im curious as I get more into the longevity is that coating and color lock. PP still has the best to me in regards to not bleeding on the reel it just fades. Love these talks its nice to see how it works for others in different situations.
Great timing. Need to change out some of my lines and picked up some good info.
Have about 90% of my rods spooled with suffix 832. All my fresh water have 10 to 20lb on them and salt water rods from 20 to 50lb. Have freshwater rods that the line has been on there up to five years and have never had a break off or wind not. I fish the Great Lakes three to four days a week and 832 has been exceptional. I do like to test other lines (hence 10%). Used PP original with no complaints but Sufix 832 hasn’t ever let me down. Also use Yo Zuri and have had no issues. Under 40lb is four strand and above goes to eight strand. Only get to fish Florida three or four times a year and sufix has been my go to for many years. Great site and knowledge and keeps me up to date. 👍🏽
Suffix x8
J braid grand is great to start with, I used it last year and it doesn't last with saltwater use. After a couple of months fishing it would become very weak and would constantly break it is floored not sure if it is sunlight and saltwater or what is.
Sufix 131 it's the best braid I have ever used it doesn't seem to age.
Yes
I was waiting for such important questions to be answered
Thanks
Thank you for sharing this information.
Fantastic channel. Love the no nonsense approach.
I have two reels spooled with the J- Braid grand. I have 40 pound on a 6000 clash and 15 pound on a shimano spheros inshore 3000. I have lost about a third of my spool on the 6000 due to numerous wind knots in different conditions. I haven’t thrown one after I lost the line so maybe it has something to do with the amount of line on the spool. I have thrown a couple on the 3000 but nothing I would blame on it being inferior line. It’s a toss up but I think I will stick with original power pro. The frustration and uncertainty just isn’t worth it. Keep up the great work guys I love these type of videos.
yeah. spiderwire was the first. 90's. and i believe it was 45c/yd. so very expensive considering the year and common popular mono's at the time were $2-3 for a roll. I know people in the shipping industry and I remember them talking about how spectra lines on escort tugs were revolutionizing shipping. They were getting lines in the millions of lbs breaking strength that were a fraction of the diameter of traditional lines. And anyone following the offroad driving hobby knows that braided lines have taken over for their winch lines.
Hey there,… braided line has been around longer than you think,… I’m 62 years old … it’s been around before I was born… and it was called squidding line then… for whatever reason.. I don’t know ….
Whatever product you buy ,… there’s going to be a downside to any and all … but if you can’t tie a good knot…. then it doesn’t matter how good your line is…. 🤗
BTW… Spiderwire has been used for cutting out windshields without damaging any part of the vehicle for quite sometime as well…..
Thank you guys for all your info :)
Good video fellas! I use to use Berkley fire line in the late 90's. That line was amazing back then. Have you guys ever tried cortland master braid? I have been using it the last couple years I like it better than sufix 832.
I don't have any complaints on the Sufix 832 20#. Used to get wind knots all the time with PP 20#.
Found this very helpful and informative.
Spiderwire was first, then I stumbled on Fusion...PowerPro was after and less expensive...used PP ever since. Still have PP that’s over 20 years old on a reel I still use. Braid on that reel is almost white. I am trying J8 on a few reels right now...we’ll see.
The suffix 832 and new 13 is great. I have been really liking the YGK sinking braid it is fantastic for finesse. I have really been liking the fins as well. Yo-Zuri is pretty hard to beat for the price as well.
I use sufix Matrix pro for pike and power pro for zander
I just bought some 10lb Yo-Zuri what was your experience with it....
Would love to see power pro vs. Reaction tackle! Been hearing really good things about it and it's made in the U.S. of A!
I use both . Power Pro 30lb on 2 Lews Baitcasters and 20 pound on a Lews Ultra Lite spinning reel . Reaction 30 pound on 2 Kastking Royalle 2s .
Knots are easier to tie on the Reaction and it is a bit quieter going through the line guide . Power Pro original loses color after a while .
I get less backslashes on the Power Pro .
Only new to braided line, will listen to this cast over the coming months, and continue to use the line on spinner reels and put some line on my alvey reels (shore and beach fishing reels). This video should be educational when I get through all the other video's I am yet to watch, loads of them!

@@Saltstrong will do thanks, organising playlists to simplify where I am at, for today is sorting out the yard. Got a few months till we fly out to New Zealand but that doesn't stop me from learning for when we come back 💯

I bought a daiwa bg 4000 and I’m gonna put power pro 30lb braid and a Shimano Sahara R Rear Drag Spinning Reel - SH4000R and imma put PowerPro Super 8 Slick V2 Braided Line..... first time surf fishing!! Any thoughts???? 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
I noticed over spooling can create wind knots. Especially on Shimano. If it says 150 yards of 10lb braid. Then stick to 150 yards. Shimano tests these things for a reason. I’ve put so many different lines and it boils down to that.
Great show, guys!
Thanks so much!
Any thoughts on the Soft Steel line - it's on super dooper closeout - I bought a bunch and seems to feel the equivalent of the likes of powerpro v2 or jbraid 8 (I have x8 and x8grand) diameter and smoothness. I have not spooled or fished any of it as yet.
Interesting conversation, Thanks.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’d like to see the Maxcuatro tested in a same lb test in knot strength and casting distance vs their V2 Super slick.
Siglon 35 lb for rock and surf fishing, throwing big lures... I must say I never had any issues at all.🎣
Not related to the line subject. But do you guys know When the Spinning Rods will be back in stock??
Western Filament created the first Spectra fishing line in Sept of 1990. They have been making braided fishing line at least since the 1930s. They still produce braided fishing line today.
I have daiwa 1000lt. Which will be btr to cast far n sink well? Sufix? Pp?berkley?
You should review Ygk G soul 0.8 pe braided line
Thanks for nice video. One question which always confused me. Why Power Pro 50lb braid for European market has 30kg test marking as well although 50 lb makes 23 kg? 🤔
My favorites are Berkley x9, Spro Finesse, J-Braid x8
Is there a reason (or maybe I missed it) that you have not tested Berkley X9 in this bunch? I hate the noise from 4-strand (not the performance) so I like the 8 strand rounder braids and am trying to compare those lines that I find in my local tackle shops. The X9 is available at a local shop and seems to be a local favorite for inshore (Chesapeake Bay, Virginia Beach area).
I use 15lb J-Braid 8 on my spinning gear and my clients never get wind knots and most are not experienced and they are throwing artificial lurers exclusively. Diawa gives you more line for the money than Power Pro so I converted.
Luke, do you compare the diameters of the lines when you're testing breaking strength? Line companies often under-state the line rating and say that they have the strongest 10-pound test line when it breaks at 15. They can legally get away with that because the lines are not IGFA tournament rated. If you're an old Ande Tournament user like I was, if the line breaks at 10, it's 10-pound test, but if it breaks at 15, it's 15-pound test. Tournament-rated lines break at or slightly below the stated rating. Comparison of line diameters with many lines might reveal that the greater diameter line might break at a higher pound rating. This is an excellent discussion. Oh, back in the late 80's and early 90's I was field-testing braided lines for several companies. A local line was Raptor. Berkley had several lines in testing. Some lines that came to market first actually sawed through guides and tip tops. I am aware of two of those lines, and if you'd like to know what they are, I'll tell you if you DM me, but it's not for public knowledge.
If you told us you would have to kill us right
Hello sir who is the best coler braid line
Have you guys tried momoi it’s a japanese braid I’ve been using for a couple of years very thin, great caster.
Great question! Make sure to ask this over on the actual blog or in the Community (www.saltstrong.com/) where the coaches spend their time. The blog can be found here: bit.ly/3ux5WDt
I used the original power pro super slick, hated it. Knot slippage and wind knots galore, swore off waxed braided lines after that. Been using 4 strand power pro for years with good success, little noisy on the guides. Just switched to j-braid x8, hopefully it’s good.
Get some fins
@3:17 My first braided line was Spider Wire. Put it on 2 of my bait casters.
Awesome!
Hei. I will really appreciate an opinion about SpiderWire Stealth 0,19.I would like to use for baitcaster Shimano curado and Sg 40-80. It's right choice.
I will really appreciate Your advice.
Thanks You.
Cheers Guy's for Information. My question to you all is, do you experience more wind knots with lighter line like 6lbs ? Please advice. Cheers.
Yes! Many struggle with wind knots on light line.
Ready to try last king braid. Made in America.
Yes, my first experience was spider wire and the recommended spider-cast spinning reel. Still have it.
Good to know!
Hold on to that reel, that's pretty cool to have
I’ve tried a few different braids over the years. I keep going back to standard power pro. I do however want to try pro power slick.
Reels with a worse line lay I would say have to be under spooled to eliminate winds knots. I always under spool when given the option at a place that spools reels for you from a bulk spool 🤷🏼♂️ humble means lol
Does anyone know if kastking braid is any good?
Great video. For me I ONLY use original power pro. I really dislike suffix and j braid was too limp even at higher lbs and I hate fishing with higher lb lines even offshore
So what if u catch a big fish
Drag and knowing when to reel and when to let them run
@@mattnguyen1672 what if they run into rocks and break ur light setup
I would love to see a video on what to do with the extra (left over) braided line I do not use... after spooling a reel... Mono is easy but you can't make leaders out of briad. I have all this extra new briad, 20 to 80 yard spoils, just sitting around. Sounds like a good contest...

22:00 crazy ive had the exact same thing happen numerous times ive always been tuf on the suffix832 n tie the fg knot n have had it slip plenty i usually run the improved albright
Thanks for the feedback!
I would like to see the new “25% thinner” power pro 10lb vs the old power pro.
So I've got a Penn 30LW Squall that I need to rig for surf fishing. I've been told I need to go with 50# line. I'll be casting from the beach. I've heard that if I'm going with braid I should put a base load of mono so the braid won't slip under pressure. Do you have a video on how to rig this reel?

What type knot would you recommend to tie hook to straight braid (20lb)? Awesome vidoe BTW!! 👌
Here you go www.saltstrong.com/articles/braid-uni-knot/
Would love to see your opinions on Diamond Braid X8 Gen III.
Thanks...We'll check it out!
Your spooling device is great for casting reel. It will twist line on a spinning reel. May cause some of your wind knots.
Thanks for adding to the conversation!
I had a 10 lb different in braking strength? On same tast? With J braid 30lb ?
Just a tip knot length can cause wind knots try an alberto or cats paw knot to shorten line to leader knot.
Good call!
Power pro was bougjt by Shimano, still manufactured by inov textiles under the direct of Shimano. I only like 2 braided lines power pro 8 super slick v2 blue and kastKing Super Power X8 blue and blue camo. Kastking braid is cheaper, i cant tell any difference except I've had a little bit of color transfer onto my hands when wet in the beginning. Id get either. The only thing I dont like about braid is that it doeant last quite as long. I used to use monofilament line for the life of the reel and I cant do that with braid. Which power pro do you use? Always 8 braid over 4 for longer casts?

Does old rumor still stand true that braided line will damage your rods? My Dad says it does and I want to put braid on my Grandt All American Pro series rod so bad but worried it will damage my eyelets, please comment your thoughts on this thank you
It cuts through metal guides eventually. You need silicon carbide guides to use it.
When you spool your reel A little tip when that waxy coding on braided line gets worn out just remove the spool from your spinning/ bait caster reels and just wet the spool and it will cast beautiful and smooth every time no matter what brand of braided fishing line
I don't know if this is do-able. But could you test for the best (least) line twist of different braid lines. using ur spooling tool. I find this is my main reason to change lines. I dont usually worry about abrasion on braid. if i lose a fish because of a breakoff due to abrasion, i give the fish the victory.
Have you tried Yozuri Super Braid? I have using that line for quite a while with zero issues. I am currently using 19#, 15#, 20#, and 40# on my big boy rod. I've not had the first wind knot and the casting distance is very good. I would love to hear your comments on this brand of braided line.
I have the 20 on my 3000 and I'm pleased considering I always ran spiderwire before. Yo zuri is much better. Caught big bass and a nice snook on it and still running strong.
Just got some #10 yozuri to try
Never had a problem with the Yozuri braid. Pretty good for the money
Give Berkley x9 a try its thinner, smooth, strong, and cast far. It also holds up I've had it on 1 reel for 2 season and is still good.
Do you think their claimed diameters are accurate? I bought their 15lb line which claims 0.14mm diameter but my 10lb power pro casts farther and it’s 0.15mm diameter. And just by looking It appears the berkley x9 is much thicker also. Even though it should technically be thinner
@@wills2397 The diameter seems to be right. Comparing 10lb to 15 lb isn't a great comparison on casting distance. 15 to 15 x9 outperforms. When you get to x9 30 compared to Pp 20 is when it truly. starts making a difference X9 30 is thinner then PP 20, When surf fishing the extra line of higher poundage helps.
Hitena goes up to 16 (granted on lines over +14lbs, i htin the others are 12 ) and it's insanely expensive, more expensive than Tatsu. Found them at a fishing show in the north east. Cool stuff but, only for situations where you main line could never impact any structure and it comes in maximum 300yard spools at a mere smidge over $90 a spool and since it's supposedly thinner than maxcuatro that is going to go very fast on almost every reel. Trying to be informative, but nanofil isn't really braid, closer to a fusion line. Beyond braid is just a solution dyed fiber which I guess is kind of unique, I guess, but like carpets doesn't really mean anything depending on how you use it and the other properties it has (yes I saw the tests). Googan is supposedly made by Sunline a reputable Japanese brand, though there isn't data that it is the "same line" as Sunline sells. I think the braid test methodology you utilize is better than anything else out there, though for the most part is slightly confirms my suspicions. Then, I have mainly used power pro and other lines like suffix 832 so like most people stick with the reputable lines, tie good not's, don't overset drag and catch fish.
What the closest match to the old super slick 8 line
I love the DECISIVENESS of each person's comments regarding pros/cons based on authentic, experimental RESULTS!
How I wish DC politicians rode horses of integrity with as much authenticity as you gentlemen DELIVER. BS is very unpleasant to the common man who pursue career challenges (eg., fishing) in life with determination & perseverance based on abundant failure, mishaps & varieties of success.

Best diameters are on spiderwire those lb testings just not make sense if line diameter twice ticker..
We try to keep all things consistent in our line tests
As far as too thin - and different ratings - really should primarily go w/ diameter. Seen some ratings saying oh Fins is stronger than any other 20lb exept the 832 was close (limited competitions) BUT it's also the diameter of THIRTY lbs test in everything else. So if you test the 30lb in everything else how do they stack up against the FINS 20.. It's a little insane. If something is almost too thin - well go up in diameter Never seen Seaguar tournament braid but unless you need a certified line then if you use 10lb powerpro of Jbraid then maybe go with 6 or 8 of the super thin line or if 30lb powerpro - go 20 of the super thin. If they are equivalent diameter then that is what you need to quantify how good they are in comparison.
It's also very noticeable in the likes of Mono - like Berkley Big Game people tout how strong it is in a given weight - but it's also 1.5 or 2x (off the top of my head possible exaggeration - but it's like that it's insane how thick it is compared to many others in same weight - no duh should it be stronger in a lbs test if, say, it's 20lb diameter of 40 in most others)
Sufix is way better than all of them. Did my own test and sufix takes the win for me 832/131
Spool shape matters a lot for wind knots. And how the reel retrieves on he spool. Most reels come with shims to adjust how it retrieves line. If its not correct, the line will slip out from under itself on the cast and the loops cause knots. The "casting shape" of the spool also matters. I buy braid on bulk and use a machine to spool it on. Ive had one reel give me zero problems and another reel nothing but knots.
Wind knots is the wrong term. Like sand fleas. But everyone knows the terms. If the braid is spooled loose it can knot. With coils coming out not in order on the cast.
Color doesnt matter. I like yellow for visibility.
I also love the FG knot. I use 7 or 8 feet of leader. Travels thru the guides. I also use big pinch weights lol.
Sharpie might attract bass. It smells like boiled peanuts.
That's a rolling Martin trick with the black marker going up-and-down the leaderline he did that 15 years ago
We got to take the good info from the GREAT's! 💪
I need a braid with a 1 lb mono core, idk why.
Oh good your talking about the 50lb braid for bass now it’s harder to cut through vegetation with thicker line they used to flip with 20lb mono now we need 60 lb braid ok I’ll stick to 20 and I bet I can wench a 18 lb out of vegetation
Pick what you Will.. KastKing is my braid.. 15lb. Will pick up a 20 pound Barbell.. I have Cheap 30 pound that I threw away because it wouldn't lift the 20lbs. .. The 30lb KastKing will pick up over 40 pounds and it's Small Diameter line as well
I never really cared about abrasion resistance when it comes to braid I use power pro 20lb test on my baitcaster and it hasn’t ruined the guides so I guess it’s alright
Spider wire was my first
Thanks!
Kasking power braided is #1 for me. because of the value and thinner diameter for better casting distance. the only downside it bleeds color.
Thanks for sharing!
I like my KK Hammer better than my KK Power because the Hammer has no color bleed .
@@MarkElmorehi. i switched to hammerbraid a month ago and i actually love it better than kk superpower.
Toss my spool into a bucket of water to spool up my reels!
I keep hearing about wind knots. I have about 30 rods and reels, all have braid.
I’ve literally never had a wind knot in the 25 years I’ve been a serious angler.
“Man he’s got his rods behind him … I’m gonna put mine behind me too . “😂

Not braid by what did u think of iron silk?
I really liked iron silk!
@@TheBrand83 u must not have used it long it became brittle
@@budtate401 Yeah. I didn’t. I never really use my line long. I’m always wanting to try something different. I liked it while I had it on though.
I don’t use mono as much as I used to. But the Suffix Advanced is some really nice stuff. And the P-Line I have used is impressive as well.
@@TheBrand83 I use suffix now have some p line haven't spooled it yet is it good leader material?
I’ve found J-Braid cast farther than any other braid. However, wind knots for anything under 30lbs is wind knot city. Very frustrating! Additionally, it gets damaged easily and has low abrasion durability. Moreover, it’s doubly horrible on a bait caster unless using 40lbs or higher.
I use 15# on my bait casters with no problems whatsoever, and 10# and 15# on my spin casts with no problems. I also use 20# and my flipping rod I use 50#. All work great and no wind knots. I've been using Jx8 for years, nothing is better and I've used them all. All I use is Jx8 braid, I have 32 rods and reels.
@@bkbaitsal4389 I live in a lake and had no issue bass fishing with it. My comments were referring to wade fishing, kayak fishing in the lagoon and surf fishing were gusting winds are extremely common along with oyster bars. I’m glad it works for you, but it doesn’t stand up to my use in the inshore fishing environment.
Have you tried saltiga 12 dex braid
@@dackalack5479 I have not. After trying out numerous other braids, I chose Power Pro V2.
It’s readily available from multiple sources at a decent price. It performs extremely well in multiple applications. Not to say that I won’t try something new in the future but I’ve recently spoiled up nine reels with the power pro and have over 1000 yards of it on hand.
@@MJ-km3qz wow you must have bought serious bulk, I just bought the saltiga 22lb line an comes at pe rating of 1. Cost $67 us for 200, will see how it goes

There are several good brands out there. If you want some specific recommendations, please check out the full blog post on our website, bit.ly/3ux5WDt, and post your question there and our team can respond.
The smoother the line (rounder) it is the more contact surface it will have with the guides thus reducing casting distance.
If a company states a braid to be 10lb and it brakes at 20lb + then it is 20lb + braid and they understating the braking strain. 10lb is 10lb same as 10lb bricks are just as heavy as 10lb features. Match the diameter and PE rating that is a mass rating because some braids are flat so they thin on one cross section and thick on the other.
Thanks for checking it out, you can search more tips here: www.saltstrong.com/
Original Powerpro is still the best overall. 8 strand braid is less abrasion resistant. Spectra is different that HMWPE, a.k.a. Dyneema.
Thanks for the feedback!
I wouldn't want to fish for fish that I only needed a 10lb line. I start at 40 and only go up from there! It is salmon fishing and big pike in the clearest rivers and lakes Canada has to offer then right into the oceans off the west coast!

PANDORA worlds best yet never gets talked about.....
I was under the impression that these bass fishermen used 50lb braid because lighter braid cuts into the spool on a baitcaster reel
They use 50lb and higher specifically to tow in bass as fast as possible so they can catch more faster. And to cut through weeds. This trend started with the professional circuit for tournament fishing. You know, the $70k tracker boats, 15 tackle boxes and the NASCAR style shirts with sponsor branding all over it. For bass.
I match the line to the rod and reel. If your reel has 20lbs of drag, 20lb line is a good match. So for a 7 and 7.5 foot rod, I use 3000 or 4000 size reels which are usually in the 25lb drag range on mid priced spinning reels.
10lb braid is too light for inshore. I was fishing for specks 2 weeks ago and suddenly found myself being towed by a tarpon. I was using shrimp knuckles. 20lb is my goto for inshore.
@@warinotrapp136 Good advice. I will say a reel with 20lbs of drag can handle much stronger than 20lb test line if need be.
I und 10 and 20 pound brains on my baitcasters for saltwater fishing I catch Spanish mackerel and queen fish no issues with the braid digging into itself but any structure and it pings
Suffix seems to be over-hyped based on numerous tests I have seen.
Let us know if you have any questions!
wind knots, wind knots, wind knots.... that's what weekend warriors care about!!
Thanks for checking out the video!
A funny thought occurred to me. There's not a fish in the world trying to figure out how to overcome being caught by any braids, monos, or fluorocarbons. They're just goin about their business.
Yep!
No fishtube or fish strong.
Reaction Tackle Braided & forget the gimmicks & sales pitches
It's essentially all the same stuff. Just the weaving and coating is different. A line conditioner is helpful.
If any line’s breaking point is more than what it advertises, it’s an intentional false claim. Breaking point is breaking point!! Example: 10 lb braid breaks at 20 lb, then it’s 20 lb. You are actually using 20lb. Losing casting distance. Drop down to what you want and get more distance.
