I like 14lb Original Stren in clear/blue..great for line watchers I grew up throwing stren only, when the flouro craze came about I went to it on everything, I started snapping off big fish on hook sets non stop, I went back to my tried and trued stren for a few applications. Some i like flouro for better now, but for my t-rigs it's stren original for me.

As funny as it might sound, I'm a huge fan of Power Pro yellow. I double uni knot some flouro and I can see it and the fish can't. Same here. Another bonus: the ability to visually read strikes has pretty much eliminated gut-hooked fish for me.

I like P-line CX Premium, which is a fluorocarbon coated copolymer. Casts like mono and has low visibility under water. I am a line watcher also and can see the blue/flourescent color very well.
In memory of my childhood friend Dan Sterling, who taught me at an early age how to catch bream with a hand-line, and who unknowingly hooked me on fishing for life.
