you dont want to use cheap line it will cost u in the long run, try seaguar invisX, its more costly but you will not regret spending the extra money when you hang a pb

I used the trilene stuff that comes in the gold boxes and it was good but the seaguar is the best stuff I have tried so far. Don't try and save money on line. its not worth it.

For the money go with the BassPro. Otherwise go with the Seguar Invis-X.

+ a hundred thousand billion trillion...another thing is that if you fish where there is alot of trees and stuff,the cheap stuff with fray like nothing and you will end up replacing it more often anyway,wich will cost you more in the long run,seaguar will last longer because of its abrasion resistance...which Im sure Cody will agree is one of the most important characteristics line can have for fishing Fork

If your on a budget, seagar now has a cheaper floro. line that you may want to give a try called Red Label. Now I can only attest for the lighter (10 & 12 #) lines as I bought the large spools of invisx in the heavier lines. But throwing this line on my spinning rods and crank baits I have had zero issues. May give that a try.......FYI the last few times I visited basspro/cabelas they were picked clean, so may have to order online.

vanish is ok in structure free lakes and when drop shotting where there is no eye srossing hooksets, its weak points

Trilene 100% - Moderately priced and descent quality.
Gamma Edge - Maybe the strongest, but priced high.
Sunline Sniper - Maybe the smallest diameter, but priced high.
Seaguar InvisX - Moderately priced and descent quality.
BPS XPS - Cheapest and too many break offs.

Once you try lft florohybrid (parahellium)you won't fish anything else. They're mono is awesome for topwater too.

P-line Halo is the best IMO. Now that everyone has given you a different line find one that you like.. You will never get a 100% we all use this..

Hmmm...I have been having good luck with BPS FC at least in the 8, 12 and 14 lb range...I find it is almost as good as Invizix...and just a little bit less expensive last time I looked (and before the price increase on the BPS FC it had better bang for the buck then any other FC I have tried).
Guess other folks results have been different, but I am still throwing the BPS FC.
