Switching to a 7" shakey worm setup, I really wasnt impressed with the sensitivity. Although I could slighly feel the bait as it moved through grass in 15ft of water, it didnt seem to perform like the Yozuri Hyrid that Ive used in the past. I quickly switched gears and went with a RC 1.5. Durability / Strength: After spending 3 hours with this line, and over 150 casts, I tested how well it held up over time. I couldnt get it to snap even when the rod was fully loaded. If this were mono, you would have already cut and retied a few times by now. Up close, you can see one small nick in the line, which was the only visible damage I could find. Final word: I think Berkley has really comeup with a winner. The line was extra toug, even after using it for so long, and in tough conditions around rock, timber, and vegetation. It could be used in many different styles of fishing, but it really excelled with crankbaits and weightless worm fishing (senko). Way to go Berkley!
