Brand of Braid

[Bait Bucket]

Well, I picked up 2 Daiwa sealine 27lc's and will use them for lake trout on Keuka Lake. Trolling with a 0 dipsy and the rest. I want to put on some braid, so I know of the top brands, but was wondering if anyone ever heard of or used Mustad Thor. I don't want to waste 300 yards on the reel and not sure if 150 would be enough. The Mustad comes in a spool of 200 yards, which would be plenty. 30 or 40 pound, not sure yet, but they are only $9.99 locally.  Just wondering.

I’ve never tried the Mustad Thor, mainly because they don’t sell it locally where I live. Reading some reviews and product info, it appears to have a smoother profile than other braids and is quieter through the rod guides. For the price, it might be worth a try.

Going to try it, just need to decide on 30 or 40 pound.

I have used the mustad braid and liked it better then power pro! suffix 832 is nice as well .

The Mustad braid seems to hold up better than Power Pro in my experience without  the extreme fading.

Pick up two spools of 30 lb for $9.00 a piece and wrapped it on. Can't wait to try it. Thanks for all the input.
