Fluorocarbon for me. Seaguar Invizix is the brand.

I assume we are talking soft plastics and not earthworms.
That said, I'm gonna try the seaguar next time, but honestly, I like the P-Line co-polymer.

Seaguar Invizix for me too. It's a lot more sensitive than mono and is virtually invisible underwater so you can get away with heavier lb test line (I normally use 20# but 14# for some applications). It is also very abrasion resistant.

Not fond of braid for worm fishing since it's so visible. I will reserve the braid for frogs/rat fishing or flipping plastics/jigs into grass mats where visibility isn't going to be an issue.

you can't go wrong with seaguar invizx. But if I'm fishing fairly heavy cover, I like abrazx better.

Pline Flourcarbon clear. Tried the green, scares off the fish.

Fluorocarbon is my personal favorite for a couple of reasons. I like the sensitivity of the line. It's like using braid without all the drama that comes with it, and its practically invisible to the fish. You can fish a heavier pound line than mono because the line diameter is thinner. I have tried various brands of fluorocarbon and haven't really decided which one I liked the best. Have had great success with all of them. I haven't tried Seaguars but I keep hearing that it's the best with there spool wound technology. I have had a friend that fished with it and he said the spool he got was defective. About every 3 ft on the spool when he was putting it on it looked like it was pinched. My advise is this. Buy Flourocarbon for all of your bottom use plastics. Go to the store and look at the brands; most of them say 100%Fluorocarbon but pay attention to the line diameter. This will alow you to get a stronger line capacity for the best diameter; which will help you catch more fish. In my experience all Fluorocarbons cast WAY WAY better with line conditioner. Try the KVD line conditioner or line butter. I swear it makes a huge difference. Even if you save some money and buy cheaper Fluorocarbon on a budget you will notice the massive ease when casting the line. That's my 2 cents; hope it helps.

I use Trilene 100% Fluorocarbon. Most satisfied I have ever been with a line for worm fishing.
