Some random abrasion issues with Invizx that I haven't experienced with Sunline Sniper. As b00stin4 mentioned, there are Seaguar knockoffs on the market and I have fallen victim to it before via Amazon. The big difference for me is the Invizx has a lot more stretch to it than FC Sniper and personally, I do not like that extra stretch. I think both are quality lines, just slightly different and it ultimately comes down to personal preference. I have all the confidence in the world with Sniper so that is what I throw. Had same issues with InvizX around heavy wood cover, switched to Sunline Sniper and been happy with it for several years

Sunline Sniper is what I've found fits my needs in many cases. I've tried Tatsu, but can't justify the cost to what I can get out of Sniper.

Over the course of the past few years I have migrated to all Sunline. It has proven itself to me many times over. Hard to beat the Super Fluorocarbon for the price.

If you’re looking t try expensive fluorocarbon... don’t leave out Gamma. Gamma and 100% Trilene are the 2 strongest lines, IMO

I tried invisx awhile ago but I guess I got some bad runs of it because it sure broke easy. Went to Trilene 100% flouro and it is the strongest I have found flouro. Its a bit more stiff and it seems to develop a white color after not too many trips. I am trying invisx again and am liking it a lot. I have about decided for flipping use Trilene and everything else Invisx. I didn't like the sunline at all. Well, it is also just the nature of fluoro. I remember when it first came out with the old "Vanish". I lost 5 fish in a row on that [censored]. Took me forever to try fluro again.

I like the diameter to weight ratio for Sunline. Also very smooth and has lasted forever. I used invisx for a few times and got rid of it. Too fragile for me.
When I am not fishing I am thinking about fishing. And mostly what I should have done differently my last trip! #Brockstarama

Seaguar Invizx has never let me down. I can't say the same for Sunline. I tried it once and it broke on me too easily so that convinced me to stick with Invizx.

I went sunline for a little over a year, right back to seagaur. +1 Smart move.

6months ago I switched to Sunline. I had been using Seagaur for years. Since switching I haven't had any issues with my line breaking near as easy as Seagaur. It cast smoother and seems to have less memory than Seagaur. I've been flipping some 18lb sunline in timber and i'm more impressed with it than i was the 20lb Seagaur. I've pulled fish out of some trees with my line chewed to hell but didn't break.

Same here it's properly named because your fish will Vanish after the line breaks.
