Thanks Doug, but I already have them myself, I am wanting it for splicing 30 or 40 lb solid braid to 30lb mono. So the 80 or 100 lb hollow braid is just a bit too big, may still be ok but only as a last resort.

Vance this brand isn't bad braid, I would use it for joining, I would use it for standard fishing.

But for the IGFA and club standards, no I would have a reputable line.

Thanks Alan, given that brand I presume you did some work with George at Saltwater Connection. I will send you a PM.

long PR knot even on 10 or 15kg mono. I have more confidence in this than a splice myself.
