Typically use Invizx, but saw Trilene was BOGO at BPS. Is Trilene any good?

Its very good, just has more memory than Invizx and isnt quite as soft. And for the BPS sale price, its definitely a great value.

I believe just like most things, its a preference thing. I love the diameter of the Trilene 100% as well as the lack of memory. However, I use both InvizX and Trilene 100%.

I've been using it with out any problems for several years. Tried some others but "to me" this has felt the best. I use a Eugene knot and on non moving baits as in plastics. Pretty good deal at BOGO. I stock up every spring. I use 15# only, anything smaller or bigger I use mono. I'm recreational, not tournament.

My opinion, it's about priced right at 1/2 off. I've been using Stren for a couple of years after buying it while there was a rebate program. Stren is $9.00--$10.00 a spool at regular price. It will likely go on sale later this month or next. No way Trilene is worth +$20.00 a spool.

I like Trilene 100% Flo. I like Invixz too.

Just know that it is much larger diameter than Invizx. If you are used to using 15# Invizx you may want to try 12# Trilene. These two have the exact same diameter. I believe it is a marketing ploy.

Every company wants to be able to say their XX pound line is stronger than the competitors. I would bet money if you put the two of them on a line test machine the Trilene would be stronger pound for pound but it is larger. It should be.

Compare the two before you buy so you will know what buy are getting.

No doubt it's stronger. If I'm hung on something deep and gotta break it I have to get on the TM and let er rip. realmad
