sunline super fluorocarbon semi-review

Featured Replies

First off I never knew that this stuff was as thin as it is. I spooled up 20 lb line on a jig rod just to mess around with inside the apartment. Ya know, to pitch to stuff. I heard this line was thinner than most but dang .015 for 20 lb line. To me it doesnt handle like a 20 lb line, more like a 14 or 15. I checked another brand that I love which is mccoy 17 lb fluoro, and that's .016. The knots ive tied with it lay nice though. I never used sunline fishing before so dont how it's abrasion or sensitivity is. When I first got it, I did saturate the spool with kvd line conditioner. But getting bored and already pitching to objects at my place. Hope I don't break anything. All n all I'm excited to try this brand out and see how strong it is.

Sounds good! Eventually I may try some Sunline.

But I've got so much Yo-Zuri Hybrid and Floroclear
to go through....

Most of my reels are spooled with Shooter and Sniper but I do have one with Super Fluoro on it. In all honesty I feel it is a very good line. I have never had a problem with it at all. I have 20 lb. spooled up for hollow bodied swimbaits and it has performed flawlessly. The only downside I have found with it is that the line needs to be changed more often than Shooter or Sniper, and it's not as sensitive which should be expected. The first time I spooled 20 lb. on it lasted about 2 months of hard use but I never had any problems with break-offs or knots. I know a lot of people swear by Red Label for the best cheapest fluoro but from my experience Sunline Super Fluoro is a much better line.

I've got a little experience with Super as well.  I haven't had any problem with it either.  Anytime I need a cheaper fluoro, this is the one I buy.  I like it a lot better than Red Label also.
