Seaguar fluorocarbon Red label great line for a great price. The Seaguar invizx is also really good i do not believe its worth 20 bucks.

I have a spool of 10#,12# and 15# Inviszex. I'd normally do the 12#, ?

DAMYL TECTAN (made in Germany) from CABELA'S,but is better to fish with SPIDERWIRE ULTRACAST braid+fluorocarbon leader.

The line that I use on all of my spinning reels is the 100% Fluorocarbon XL from Berkley. This line is softer and more manageable than the regular fluorocarbon lines. I've been using this line since it first came out and haven't had and issues with it.

I tried Invizx once and the results wasn't good. Went back to mono Trilene XL. Fluro is just too stiff. Running McCoy's Braid on one also.

I would give the nod to the new Berkley 100% fluorocarbon XL. It was designed specifically for spinning reels.

I've been using 8# exclusively on my spinning reels since the first part of the year with great success. It is strong and very manageable. In my opinion, it is one of the limpest fluorocarbons on the market.

Give it a try, I don't think you'll be disappointed.

Try bass pro shops Excell. Works great on spinning reels,mis plenty strong and abrasion resistant and a great value.

What strength do you use? I normally put 12# on mine.

I have braid on one, fluorocarbon one one and mono on another. The 12# mono is the one I like the most by h20. Great for worms and flipping flukes.
