Personally haven't had any issues with it. Thickness is comparable to other brands.

The heavier sizes may not have issues, but the 6# and 8# that I used had to be taken off the reels after I was fed up with the knot failures.

Line looks great, but its performance left a lot to be desired.
That's the same experience that I was having with 20#--so many knot failures.

What knot is everyone tying with this line? I still have some leftover 20# that I don't know what to do with...it was expensive enough not to just throw it away, but hard to get myself to use it for something...

FWIW, I was tying a double San Diego jam knot.

This is the same knot I tie with Shooter, Sniper, and now Shimano's Mastiff and have zero problem with.
