Yes that page reads well but a word of caution....Im not sure its abrasion resistance is better than most other lines. Spiny dogs can snip thru 30lb bs without bother (mind you 30lb is pretty light).
And that internet page also burbles on about knots bedding down and pulling up tight...blah blah blah! As I said in my first post the 30 and 40lb bs is good and makes a nice compact knot but the higher bs stuff is not. I use a locked half blood knot and with 70lb bs Enigma snood line the end of the tag line would not "lock down" and when I tried to snip the tag end off to make a compact neat knot it worked loose and the knot failed. I should use "uni" knots more and I think in retrospect a uni knot might have done the business. However when I discovered this flaw in the heavy line I got the hump and biffed it in the bin. If I still had it I would give that knot a try now!
Taking into account my two provisos above I would say give it a try if you can get hold of the line and the 50 meter spools were not expensive. (The feel and look of the stuff really reminds me of trout fly casting line)
