I have two reel with 20 # 7 strand silver color, I used it with my slider diver for the past 2 year and i'm verry satisfied. Only negative point is: when you had newbies with you, this kind of wire need to be reeled verry tigh, and if not, you will get proble, m for sure, when you will have a touch. Me I used wire by miself and I get more touch with it, but with newbies, I use braided power pro, even if I had'nt the same signature and some day's less touch, I prefer that way. Remember to always reel it tigh, and use at less an twillie tip on your rod. This year if I find it, I will try the brown color in 20#. (Until now I never seen an brown spool on shop, so can't buy it. The first one I see, i'll grab it for sure.) Can't say difference between the two, as I always used one or the other on my boat or on friend boat, so can't know if one is better than the other. But for now I think they are about equivalent.
