You get what you pay for.
If it works for you, then keep using it.

I like it from about 12 lb test and less. Over 12 lb it seems stiff with memory and hard to manage.

I like it. Been using it for a couple years now.
Crankbaits to jigs.
You can avoid having ulcers by adapting to the situation: If you fall in the mud puddle, check your pockets for fish. ~Unknown
Open your eyes & look within, are you satisfied with the life youre living.
No matter how good or bad you have it, wake up each day thankful for your life. Someone somewhere else is desperately fighting for theirs.

Nope...change it as much as you want for that price.
I catch more on cheap H2O baits compared to my box full of Lucky Craft....price doesn't have anything to do with it IMO. In the fishing industry they figured out "if you charge more ($)..people think it's better." What a niche they have! I wish my business could work that way!

I agree, fluoro is a classic example of "you get what you pay for".
If you want to save on fluoro buy Cabelas "No-Vis". $20 for 400 yds. I think it's made by Seaguar. It's a little on the thick side, so it's a little wirey. It's been holding up well on hooksets for me. That's my main peeve with fluoro.

I bought one spool, and it was my last. Can't stand that much memory in a line.

If you purchase anything over 12# test, heed the following advice:
1. Do not allow it to rub against anything hard such as wood or rocks.
2. Do not tie a knot with it.
3. And do not, under any circumstances, attempt to cast it further than 30 ft..
4. Consider the following uses : Floss your dogs back teeth, tie up your tomato plants, set rodent snares, and tie off the top of garbage bags. Other applications are not recommended.

God grant me the serenity to accept the things I cannot change; courage to change the things I can; and wisdom to know when to go fishing.
