Just swapped from 12 lb. mono to 15 lb. Power Pro on my spinning reels.
Makes a lot of difference. Holds more braid than mono, smaller diameter, throws farther and easier, doesn't need to be changed out as often.
Only downside, it makes a funny noise when reeling in a fish. No noise when reeling in empty and it feels funny on your finger tip when casting.
15 lb. braid is same size as 4 lb. mono.
20 lb. braid is same size as 8 lb. mono.
