Anyone else having problems out of their SA fly lines. This is about to be my second line in a month that I'm replacing. It's insane that their cheaper line is stronger than their premium. My GPX is still going strong after a year. My smooth amplitude is fraying after 2 weeks. The absolute bonefish textured frayed after 2 months.

Bad batch? I only use SA lines and generally beat my stuff up pretty good and haven’t had any issues with them, maybe check your guides/reel and make sure there’s not a edge or sharp spot they could rub up against and get cut on
This is probably a blessing, means you get rid of the loop 😃
They’ll send you a new one if you email customer service.
I’ve never had quality issues with several decades of SA lines.
Do you leave it in a hot car exposed to the sun all day?
That’s about the only reason I could forsee that may ruin a line like that. Even then, it shouldn’t, but I’ve had $20 lines last years without looking like that.
