Thanks, and I would agree. It was something just stirring in my brain and thought I'd bring it up before I ordered more line.

I use 15# 75% of the time on Fork

The other 25% is 20# on my main line with a rig, 15# leader

From my experience their is a big diff between 15lb an 20lb when it comes to strength. I literally cannot break 20lb invizix when I hand my c-rig or jig. Almost always cut it

Damn near had a hernia trying to break off 20# Seaguar red label flouro 2 days ago. How the hell a fish breaks that stuff is a mystery to me.

Diameter/memory is the big difference to me.

15 is much more prone to nicks in the line than 20 for me.

15 unless I'm at falcon. and then it's 20 invisx. I don't like the way 25 feels.

Use 12 or 15 invisix for most things. 20 for c rig. If I'm at Amistad I may use braid for c rig
