Lost 2 3/4oz Rapala crankbaits due to line breakage this past week while long bombing from shore using 7' Medium spinning outfit with 30lb PowerPro Super8Slick
I believe the line breakage was caused by the crazy 'birdnests' I was getting once every 30 casts with no apparent reasons. (never before!)
Since
- I had never had this problem with any mono/floro/braided lines on the market
- I was not casting against the wind
- There was no excessive line slack when working lures/retrieving lines
- It was my 1st time using PowerPro Slick,
I could only think the line was the problem
what do you guys think?
Added:
The 'birdnests' were on the line itself, not on the spool
