its great line but learn how to knot it correctly or you will break off on hooksets and hate it. many guys prefer the san diego jam knot, its easy to learn and pretty fool-proof.
brand i am sure there's lots of good ones, i use Seaguar Invizx and buy it in 1,000 or 3,000 yard spools on sale so it doesn't cost me $25 to spool up a reel. buying a premium line like that you don't have to re-spool nearly as often. If you get some memory in it, tie off an end to a fence post, walk about 50-75' and give it a gentle stretch, memory is gone.
good luck Second this

Invizx is really good although I have tried 1 spool of Tatsu and I will put this super expensive line on 2 reels and 2 reels only because of the cost, 20lb test It is thinner (like 17lb test) and has less memory. Its the best line I have used.
I have heard sunline has some similar product that I havent used but I know alot of pros use sunline.
So I would say invisx for a still pricey but very durable line and tatsu is the best but at a much higher price. Sunline fluoro is the best! believe it! Some diameters are smaller than the invizx, etc. for the same stated test, and even small test is almost impossible to break.
