I always had a thing for crystal and now that it's even thinner, it makes me want it more.
It's a wonder why top brands never even bother with "cystal" colour braid?
Do you know what time they plan to release this, Pigdog?

Had it and was sort of happy with it, but the way that orange dye came off and knot issues led me to give it away. Using power pro now and it's not too bad

I received a spool of the 3lb Crystal Exceed and won't be buying it again, too many wind knots for my liking.

I've been using he 5.5lb Crystal and liking it so far, no problems at all.

Mik I use a Albright for everything. So I would recommend that. Lots quicker than a double uni and smaller also.

Todd I had a similar problem with the 3lb but not with the thicker version.

My 8.8lb has given me no problems.

The line does bleed colour i.e. if you wind in line between your fingers.

Feels like crystal fireline. I like it
