I've been having a tough time with fluoro line memory causing backlashs (we refer to them as professional overruns). Can anybody suggest a fluoro line that doesn't have that gosh awful line memory?

I have tried most all brands and Seigar seems to be the best for the money. InvesX

Line Conditioner is the fix.

Line Conditioner is the fix. +1 Also I like Bass pro brand XPS fluoro, and its a bit less expensive than seaguar
Let us hope that the bass do not find the equivalent of the Holy Hand Grenade of Antioch.

Yep, KVD line & lure will make ALL line act better and last longer between re-spools but all flouro's are not created equal. Seaguar Invis-X.

Fluoro comes with memory, just goes with the territory. Precisely set your reel and make sure it's properly oiled and cleaned. Line conditioner helps also.
Invisx is probably the best dealing with memory.
Line memory is a drawback from fluoro, but the positives outweigh the negatives IMO.

I use 15 pound seaguar Invis X and use KVD line conditioner. It helps alot, more than I thought it would. I just spray some on my spool. Then cast out as far as i can, get some spray on my fingers and reel it in between my fingers. I had a hard time with it at first, it was like casting with bailing wire coiling up.

Tried all above including line conditioner. Went back to mono for small line. Couldn't see much difference stretching the line prior to fishing and using KVD conditioner. It is tougher but it's a pain to me.
