Thanks Stefan, i have sold a bit of it lately and some of the reviews i have had are that "it is the best i have ever used" and this comes from a kayak fisherman that catches more 20lb snapper than you have ever seenWink
I carry a bit of stock so if you or anyone wants a price, flick me a pm, not as expensive as some braids around

Cheers

After reading your comments on the Tasline Elite 30lb. I ordered some
to try, & very glad I did!! It is silky smooth, strong & very nice braid. Took the gosen off (is nice braid too) my Maxel FC30C, using it on my lexa 100.. Don't know how much is on it due to being white  :-) So far it's great stuff.....

Good call, Kaveman (as usual, sage wisdom).
I love the Tasline Elite White after advice from you and Makka a year or so ago - got two of the light lines on my soft bait reels, which cast beautifully. And just spooled up my top water reel with 50lb. 

The Paulus tests are very enlightening in terms of the truth about line diameter. A bit like Alan Hawk with reel reviews. He weighs them and it's amazing how many vary considerably from the weight stated on the box, and also the line capacity. Sure, he can seem a bit nutty at times, but he uploads photos of his electronic scales to prove his measurements.

Dont believe what some manufacturers put as their stated thickness
on packaging.
I can tell you that tasline is thinner and stronger than any braid produced
Go to www.paulusjustfishing.com to see totally unbiased reviews of nearly any braid ever made and then make up your own mind.
You will see the actual true thickness and actual breaking strain of all braids from the worlds best braid tester

I second kaveman's recommendation of the tasline.
Stefan, it might have a thicker stated diameter than the others but I assure you, you will get more of it on your spool, that says something....]]> Wed, 12 Apr 2017 20:00:35 +0000 https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=123937&PID=1685795&title=braid#1685795 <![CDATA[Braid : Cheers Kaveman, that Tasline diameter...]]> https://www.fishing.net.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=123937&PID=1685788&title=braid#1685788 Author: Stefan

Also every spool is tested for breaking strain and is written on the spool

Actually made for casting, only fault with it is that they wont do a metered colour braid for jigging
