    yes, i think it's the real deal...

    i looked at the pics i posted up

    many of the discrepancies are explained upon close examination of the boxes in the pictures

    specifically the actual power pro website pics


    the only thing that didn't match up was the sticker label with the lb. test, diameter sizes, etc.

    i think it's real.

    Cool! I'm glad to hear some of my fellow FNNers got in on this deal.

    I received my order as well. Time to respool some of my old rockfishing setups.
