Nothing justifies paying that much extra, absolute rip off.
Yea I definitely wouldn’t pay that either.

The braid is a complete rip off. Sunline will be more than good enough for you.

and with the reel.. do a bit of research seeing how much they have sold for new and second hand lately and that will answer your question

Cheers, Anth

Have a look at how much Frank, (BustedTackle), is charging. That tasline is top 5hit, and he often has end of spool specials.

Pretty sure there was several other brands with 12ply braid on the market before Daiwa and they are much cheaper.

I tried some Tasline 12 ply and whilst it was super nice in the hand to touch it was a little too limp and prone to wind knots ect.

I prefer something a touch stiffer.

Is it going to change the quality of casting or the feel of the strike

Yeah I agree, there is negligible difference in that regard between most of the better braids and I reckon choice comes down to feel, handling, available colours, and of course price.
