power pro bite motion

update on Powerpro Bitemotion 
have noticed for sometime there is coating on the line which flakes off 
clumps on the reel line guide, messy
lost a hard running fish after the mainline snapped during the recent March 2015 Kenyir trip 
has never happened with FINS (where only the leader goes)
i retain my trust in FINS but will no longer invest in PP lines despite the popular opinion of many


not prone to changing lines just to try them out 
heavy on the pockets ... so will scout and dig as much as possible on the net 
before trying out anything new 
PP's bite motion was an impulse buy ... two 15lb 164-yard spools 

the orange colour, smooth feel of the line and poundage called out to me 
sticker price of rm100/spool 
second round of using PP lines, first was the 5lb yellow braid on my UL reels

pros: strong, light and limp, smooth, knots seem to hold
cons: colour fades and smoothness fades after some use 

was served a nice helping of Singapore fried meehoon a month or two ago 
had to cut some line; FG-ed the remaining without trimming the ends 
that line and knot was put to the test at fish valley on October 15th when a 2kg jelawat decided to run off with the cut fresh palm fruit at the end of the line

the DAM vittatus lpbc was also tested for the first time since its purchase and use from February 2013
line, knot, reel and rod held; the second hand EA rod felt right at home 
wish the vittatus' line capacity was more though; there were times when heavier lures almost spooled the reeled 

PP bite motion feels thinner than FINS PRT
FINS 15lb seems to hold more water than PP bite motion, most probably due to the perceived reduced diameter of bitemotion
however, naked eye visual says both lines appear to be of similar thickness
for now, PP bite motion seems worth the buy 

the YGK G-Soul is another line worth checking out at RM60/150m for 16lb
bright neon yellow, thin, smooth ... that's for another day
