I like this braid, because it has very thin diameter, it is strong, and the price is good. I use 8# test for bass, trout, pike, and bonito and false allies when they are around.

Seems strong. Extremely thin. I do not have issues with it tangling like you do with some small braid. It is of good quality even though it is not priced like it.

You can't beat the braided line for a thinner profile, greater strength, good casting, and better feel. I've used 20# braided for years. I was thankful to find this in a great, multi-reel-filling length and a very competitive price. I have marked it in my Amazon wish list to remember to reorder it. It produces great hook sets and reliable landings of bass for me.

I was able to string two poles and have some left over. Seems like good quality. I have not used yet and can’t comment on sensitivity, color fade, tangle resistance, visibility, or functionality yet.

Super braided line from CastKing. Strong and durable. Even spliced and added to it and it holds great. I highly recommend this product. The casting distance is great as well. This weight is perfect for salt water and larger fish.

I have been using Destron X8 this whole fishing season and I am impressed. It's strong, smooth and holds it color better than other lines. That last part is important as I often the chartreuse color so I can watch my line. I have seen other lines fade quicker.This version of Destron casts well with it being a smooth line which is important for casting finesses lures a long distance. I don't see much difference between it and the more expensive lines I use.I really have no Cons for this line, especially considering how much cheaper it can be than other name brands when it's on sale.Dextron X8 is a bit thinner than other braids at a similar weight rating (J-Braid, Suffix 832) so bumping up a little on weight might be advisable in certain conditions. I often use 8lb for Ned rigs and dropshots, but may try 10lb next year in areas where fish run much larger, just to be safe.I have not used the X4 version yet, so no comments on it yet. I just bought a spool for trolling applications so we will see how it performs over the next year.The X8 has been durable and combined with the color holding up well, I can see that I will likely get multiple years out of it on each reel. That is a good value.

I recently used Kastking Destron braided line on an inshore excursion in the marshes of Dularge, Louisiana. The quarry I was seeking were Bull Redfish, Black Drum, Speckled Sea Trout and Gaftop Sailcats. I was using 20lb test Destron in the Gray color. I like a challenge so I always fish with lighter tackle; in this case I was using a Kastking Kapstan Elite Spinning Reel 3000, with a Kastking Estuary/Inshore 7’ MHF rod. The Destron line casted smooth with zero issues with wind knots. After 8 hours on the water, there was little if any line fade and I noticed no issues with abrasion even though we were around several Oyster reefs. Perhaps the only knock on the line is that it frays a little more than most when cut. Minor issue in my opinion... The line proved itself to me when I hooked into what turned out to be a 39.5 inch, 28.5lb Bull Redfish. Granted, I had my drag set at about 4.5 pounds, and the fight lasted, according to my guide: 30 minutes and 27 seconds. In addition to the Bull Redfish, I caught 7 Black Drum weighing anywhere from 16 to 21 pounds, 2 Sailcats that weighed 6 and 8 pounds each, and a Stingray that weighed approximately 12 pounds. My guide is a cut and dried Power Pro fan; however, after seeing the Destron's performance, and the obvious price advantage, he said he would be buying a few spools and trying them on a trial basis going forward. I usually use KastPro, but given the Destron’s performance and lower price tag, I’ll be using Destron going forward. Great Braid, great price, and great performance = Win, Win, Win!
