I needed new braid for my baitcaster and chose this one to save money. Should have bought the x8 which wasn’t all that more expensive because I found it to overrun easily. It has a memory which contributed to the problem. I soaked it in fabric conditioner which seems to help quite a bit.

The line casts nice and further than others. Good visibility and strong enough to land a nice brown trout on the Niagara River. And lastly is budget line compared to others as much as half price.

Don't get it twisted, overall, Daiwa generally makes good products. J-Braid X4 AIN'T one of 'em. One of the things that the braid I usually use, has conditioned me to expect, is a lot less birds nest than monofilament. J-Braid fails miserably in this area. Don't get it twisted does not apply in the case of J-Braid. Twisting and bird nesting seems to be its greatest characteristic. Compared to what I usually, use this stuff was more like sewing thread than fishing line. I could not WAIT to get this stuff off my reel! Daiwa couldn't give me a FREE lifetime supply of this junk, unless it was to tie up the trash. It gets incredibly twisted!
