Thats a weird one as ive been using the 60lb clear stuff recently[admittedly over clean ground]and ive been impressed to date.It knots very well and easily and to me and a few of my friends its very like sakuma or the varivas but cheaper.Id better keep an eye on things just in case so.

Just an update i tied a batch of traces the other night and to be honest im afraid the rovex stuff just is'nt very nice to say the least

is it just that its stiff and doesnt knot nicely,,,is there not a nice feel to it

It knots very well,but kinks easily and has a slippery feel to it.When i used it initially it was on a uni knot shockleader knot which was perfect,but after tying a blast of traces ive come to the conclusion its just not as good as some other brands.I'll use it away but won't buy it again.
