I've tried it and this line casts exceptionally well but the only problem with it is,it doesn't lay tightly on the spool and just digs in when under a load.

I had already ordered this line, but I haven't put it on my reel yet. All braid seems to dig in from time to time, but is this one worse than normal. Would you go ahead and try it if you were me or just go with something else?

Try it. I've used it in 12 lb. test on a T3. No dig-in problems that I recall with 2-pound bass. Haven't had the pleasure yet of seeing whether the line digs in with big fish.

When fishing superlines, I (almost) never try to free a lure from snags without wrapping the line around something and pulling by hand, so I avoid that source of dig-in.

I'm not big fan of this line. It has a coating that can shear off when one is tightening some knots, and its diameter at a given strength is greater than one finds in true braids. But since you already own it and it is quieter through the guides than most braids are, why not give it a try?
