    Just got my gray 7/64 today...noticed that there is a core to it???..looks to be a red a green core running through the entire section...anyone else notice this???...can i try to pull all of it out???...may this not be Amsteel Blue gray 7/64???...I just dont want to splice and hang from this if it doesn't have the same rating as regular 7/64 Amsteel Blue.

    Some of you will notice a tracer running on the inside if the braid. It's not in all the line, but it serves no purpose other than identification of genuine amsteel blue. It's not a core.

    RESPONSE:
    It's not a core, it's a tracer Samson adds to the line to distinguish it from imitation amsteel blue. You can pull it out if you like, leave it in, it makes no difference.
