Anyone have any experience with it. Got on amazon last night to order some power pro, but noticed this stuff is less than half the price of power pro. If its worth a dang I might order some.
I put some 15lbs moss green on my popping corks/bottom setups, so far no complaints…especially at 1/2 the price. I also have 15 lbs Power Pro on my other setups used for artificials and might not be able to even tell a difference in a blind test. The KastKing is actually thinner and is not fading as quickly as the Power Pro
Keep us posted, I’m always open for a good product at a lower price. Not everyone can afford a gardener.

I bought some 40lb test for my Jetties setup last year and have no complaints. Definitely worth the price.
Video comparison with PP. Not endorsing, didn’t even watch, just sharing so get off my back…if someone was going to get on my back.

I think their business model is direct to consumer, so they cut out a couple middle men. That’s a pretty big savings to an OEM manufacturer. Product quality is probably the same, just a lot less expensive

Well DUH. Why do you think I can’t afford a gardener. When you live a lavish lifestyle like me, you have to make cuts somewhere. For me it is doing all of my own yard work around my vast estate.

I sure hope Karen has a Prenup, so you can’t get any of her ebay millions!
I run it on all of my reels and have never had complaint. Been using it for about 2 years now.

Use 40 lb. off shore trolling. No problems
I have been buying my braid off of eBay for the past five years. Dyneema and cast king can be had for pennies compared to power probe. I normally buy 1500 m at a time around $30. So far the fish haven’t complained. But I have had open “tackle experts” tell me that it doesn’t have as many strands blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

Well there you go! If it works for Paul, it has to work for a dumbazz like me. If I ever go fishing again, I’m going to try it.

By the way, for any of you guys looking to buy it, you get a better price off amazon. It also ships to South Carolina in like 2 days. They have a new line called fortis and it’s 8 strand I believe, you can’t even tell the difference between that and power pro!

I’ve been using KastKing for the last year or so. Buy it straight from the Eposeidon website. The color fades pretty quick but the quality seems fine to me. I’ll never buy PowerPro again. Especially when it’s less than $40 for 1000M!

Keep it long enough and it will turn white! Good stuff, have friend in Australia who swears by there reels! Have look at them but not pulled the trigger yet.
The KastKing Kodak reel is a beast in the salt water!

I’ve ordered my last 5 spools of braid direct from China, it’s cheap but it takes about a month to get it. I don’t trust those knock off reels, and at this point they are just as expensive as Shimano or Daiwa.
