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

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

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