^No. They make it up to 65 lb test I believe. I use the regular Power Pro braid, but I have heard good things about Super Slick.

power pro super slick 8. good stuff.

Is this what you use to flip or throw TN rig or is it a good all around braid? Right now Im using Ultracast spiderwire to throw TN rig but open to something better.
 
I recently tried suffix peformance braid, it's cheap and cast great. It's a tad noisy on the reel but great line in my opinion. I like it more than power pro and definatly like the price more. I'd go 30lb for flipping and pitching heavy cover and 65lb. for the TN rig. Keep in mind though if you flip braid into brush it can get caught and fray and twist, and you might break your rod trying to get it in since braid doesn't just snap. I still prefer 20lb. flouro for flipping unless it's in thick grass (which chick won't have much of that for a month or so)
 
I use of have used all the Stren braids, except the Microfuse and like it, as others, like their choice. I use it on spinning gear and like the small diameter, high strengh, it has. I want to try flouro on a couple of rods but worry, that I'll make too many casts on the same knot. I'm spoiled with the braid, I use quick clips and never re-tie unless there are other issues and have never had the line break in the vicinity of the knot.
