I know there are alot of good ones out there. I'm ready to start stocking up on Flouro....
So which ones have you guys---NOT---had good luck with because of memory issues?
Or, if you guys are using a nice limp Flouro, that casts well, which one is it? I tried Berkely this year, and it was o.k.

I have used a just a few and swore I would never buy floro again! But I recently picked up a couple spools of Seagar Invisa-X and have no complaints. No breaks. . . i even went out after it had been spooled and sitting for a month and the memory wasn't near what I thought it was. So Invisa-X and a San Diego Jam Knot!

I tried Seaguar red label 12 and 15lb and hated it.... Very stiff and I couldnt cast it at all.... Some say to spray it with kvd but I feel like if I'm gonna pay that much for 200 yds of line it shouldn't need anything.... Im mono and braid for now

Seguar invisix is the only way to go. I NEVER break off. The abrasion resistance on the line is superb. I can cast a mile with it even with light baits! I have tried many other brands of flouro and all of them are [censored] compared to this one. Besides the bass pro xps flouro. It is pretty good. The invisix has uv resistive oils on it so it will last you forever. No lie I have had my invisix on my reels for over a year now and still has no memory and cast just as good as when I first got it. It is still as strong as when I first bought it also. I could not ask for a better line! You may spend more for invisix but in the long run you will save money I think because the line last forever!

Vicious is very stiff. Seaguar Invisex and Berkley 100% are both very good. If you are a PAA member you can get a 30% discount on bulk Berkely through the affiliate program.

If you're expecting to find a flouro that is as limp and casts as well as mono, it doesn't exist.
Invisx, trilene 100%. Other than that, you could try copoly.
