Compared to other braided lines this one doesn’t seem to perform as well.

Great braid made by a great american company.

Can't go wrong with this stuff. I've used it on spinners/baitcaster/conventional with no issues. It's soft and knots well

Great quality and strength

When you get a product that is smooth, durable and perfect as it is supposed to be, it is very easy to become complacent. but Cortland always delivers, and their product is my absolute go-to braid.

This braid gets glowing reviews all over the net and I have no idea why. First of all, this stuff is thick. Both thicker than what's stated on the box as well as thicker than what's typical for its given test label rating. The 10lb braid is thicker than Sufix 832 15lb braid and nearly as thick as 20lb Power Pro. Aside from this the line is very rough, even for a four carrier. It's very loud thru my guides. And finally this stuff is very buoyant. I don't mean neutrally buoyant like most braids. I mean like floating fly line buoyant. Maybe that works for certain presentations, but for me it was a hinderance. It seems strong and ties good knots, but this line has nothing going for it beyond that. I'm going to stick with Suffix 832 and Power Pro Maxquattro.

Power pro may be the standard, but serious fisherman should know that Cortland is making a serious competitor well worth consideration. My first Cortland purchase has impressed with its castability, durability and quality. Nice product!

Master braid is by far my Top Choice braid for Musky fishing but I've made a switch to tufline which I like almost as much.. Cortland Apparently has no respect for their customers and thinks that we should be happy to pay them more for Less. It almost seems unbelievably arrogant they think they should charge us more not to cut the line and to put more on one spool Rather than less on two spools ....Right now you can buy two 150 yard spools for far less than you can buy one 250 yards Spool... does that make sense. ??Absolutely not
shame on you Cortland you lost another customer!!!!

This is No Doubt the Best Braid out there. Cortland has been making fishing lines for 100 years. They know what they are doing. They don’t have some other company make it for them. They have all the top equipment to make their own braid, and they stand by it!!! It is pricer than other braids, but with this company you can have true confidence out on the water, that you CAN depend on this line. And you can always contact the company here in the US if you would like.

I’m a nobody, just a fisherman from Chicago. I have nothing to do with Cortland. But in my search for a great trustworthy Braid, I found it in this one. Day in and day out it performs, and I have NEVER experienced a break off. You won’t be disappointed if you try it.

Great stuff! color lasts forever on the line.good for surf fishing plugs or bait fishing. Glad tackle direct carries this line now. hopefully in bigger spools soon.
Cortland has been around for 100 years and made parachute cord during world war II.
