Any ideas on a good braid or spectra to buy in the states?. Want to fill my 80 with at least 1500mt of 80lb braid. Don't want cheap Chinese   rubbish that lasts 5 min  . would prefer rainbow colours.

I have been using diawa boat braid off a friends bulk spool. It has been great! I think it was a 1600 yard spool. Around $300. Colour change every 10 meters with a dash on every meter.
