I agree brand makes a big difference. I haven't had the time nor funds over the past few years to try out multiple different brands, but I do have some spider line spooled on a couple of reels that has been on there for years. I've never had it break on me (a couple of times I wish it had when I was snagged really bad and had to cut 25 yards of line off).
I found what looked like a really good deal on Cabela's braid line a couple years ago. Spooled a reel with it, and absolutely hate the stuff. It twists and curls way too much coming off the reel, causing horrendous knots. Funny thing is when I bought it online I ordered 1 each of 2 different colors. Well....in the shipping they sent the 1 spool of green, then they sent one box (about 6 spools) of blue. I guess I'll just keep using it for trolling and not worry much about needing to cut it from time to time.
