[QUOTE="onthewater102, post: 391171, member: 13702"] Not sure if it's just exposure to sunlight on the deck or what, but a friend of mine and I both have been using power pro for a few years now (the original, not the round braid) and we're finding that the line is almost dry rotted in places now. Not sure if that's the right term, but that pretty well describes the condition of the line. I only noticed it on one of my least favorite reels, he had problems on most, but before his daughter was born this year he fished 5 days a week for at least 4 to 5 hours a day, so his line soaked up a lot of UV that mine never saw. Here again, not sure if that's the problem or not. I've heard of line conditioners, but I thought they were more so for fluoro or mono. [/QUOTE]
