Any update on this?
I also have a new 1000 spool from twh
Went out today and broke off more times than I can count..
Spooled another rod with an old 200 box of invisx that has been in the boat for close to a yr instantly felt better.. smoother to cast the strength is there when pulling in a branch also lol
The new spool looks to be bleached like it been in the sun and also feels like it is very dry and brittle..
I ordered two spools and both feel crummy...


Thinking about ordering some sunline to try 😵

Invizx is 100% fluorocarbon so exposure to sunlight resulting in bleaching and drying out . . . leading to brittle line shouldn't be an issue. If it were a nylon monofilament line, then it certainly could happen.

I know EBay and some other sites are often cited as having sellers of counterfeit items, wrist watches come to mind, but has anyone ever determined that anyone is selling an inferior fishing line wound up on a legitimate, say, Invizx spool and package? I guess it could happen, but does it?

Possible.. but I assume with the volume tackle warehouse does that are direct with seaguar and that should not be an issue..
But just an assumption if they are getting from another supplier than anything can happen

You might send Seaguar a sample and see what they say.
