Default Preston Powerline

I have purchased a ton of this line enough to open a small shop, innitially I was impressed with the strength to diameter ratio it was on par with most other brands and kind of a name you can trust, it certainly has some better properties than the old Pro micron 3 which was the line I last used 8 years ago, the stretch is amazing.

However I have a problem mainly with the 0.13 as this is what I have made most of this weeks rigs up with,

Halfway through the spool Im feeling slight imperfections with the line, when you run it through your fingers it has a dry feel as apposed to that supple soft feel you get normally, it also seems to vary in Diameter thats on feel alone though. I have NOT used a micrometer on it or tested its breaking strain.

Has anyone else experienced similar problems or is this just a bad spool

Your thoughts
