We ran blood run all last year it was more user friendly, it deploys very smooth with less twisting. We put a beating on it on Seneca with several thousands of pounds of weeds reeld in off the inlines. That's the one thing that stinks about the finger lakes in the summer. We didn't get the twisted up mess like with other copper. The diameter and sink rate is great and I was very pleased with it. Now if they could come up with a line that cuts weed pods in half that would be killer:). I also ran the sea flea line last year with outstanding results. You won't be disapoited with the blood run products.
