Sunline vs Seaguar

Featured Replies

I have been using seaguar invisX for a bit now but have been looking at getting Sunline super FC sniper.  What are you guys opinions on the Sunline super FC sniper?

 

Thanks!

Sniper FC is my go to fluoro. InvisX isn't a bad line either, but it is definitely one of the stretchiest fluorocarbon lines out there. I would highly recommend buying a spool of Sniper to try out for yourself. If you don't see much difference, then go back to your InvisX, but I"m willing to bet you'll really like the Sniper FC.

seaguar is definitly stretchy !!! the major reason i will never use their lines . Sniper , in my opinion , the best all around Flourocarbon line you can get , not much memory ,very strong , and minimal stretch . if you want a stiffer line with even less stretch , pick up some Shooter 

Ive been using sniper for 2 years, this year will be the 3rd now for my worm and jig rods. Ive been very pleased with it. I tried and liked tatsu better, but its not that much better for the cost. Good resistance to abrasion, lower memory (i use kvd line n lure religiously), and good sensitivity.

For cranking i prefer abrasx and invisx for spinner and chatter baits. 

I've used both Invizx and Sniper in 10# on a baitcast rod and liked them both, but I agree that Invizx is more stretchy than Sniper. I liked both though.

 

With that said, I've also used Abrazx and Gander Mountain fluoro but I'm now using Seaguar Red Label in 10# and love it. Seems about the same as Sniper and I'm only paying $11/200 yard spool.  Sweet.

I like sunline better also invisx was to stretchy for my also

Sunline

Would say it depends on the application you're using it for....

 

I throw a lot of moving baits and I like the stretch that InvizX gives me, reminds of mono a little bit.

Sunline Sniper is decent line, but the abrasion resistance cranking rocks is not great.

Yeah I realized that now, lol.

Another vote for Sunline. I have fished many different brands and models of Fluorocarbon and never really cared for any before. Using Sunline has changed all that. Now I couldn't imagine not using it...

Dang looks like Sunline wins by knockout lol.

 

I may need to give it a try next time I am going to put fluoro on one of my reels. I currently use invizx.

If you don't mind me asking, where are you getting it for $11 for 200 yards?

My local Walmart has 200 yard spools of Seaguar Red Label for $10.97.

I switched from Seaguar to Sunline FC sniper 3 years ago, and honestly I wish I would have done it sooner.

Seaguar Tatsu if I'm fishing fluoro. Best I've ever used and it isn't even close, of course it comes with a steep price tag but I only use fluoro on a few rods. Seaguar Flippin Fluoro is the strongest, most abrasion resistant I've used and it's not unruly like I expected, just wish it came in 15lb also. Pretty excited to try out the Finesse Fluoro. 

Yep, Tatsu is the best. Other than that it depends on the application. For stcikbaits and crankbaits I like invisx. I like the stretch and it casts and handles great.

 On my jig rods it"s sniper and shooter. I think sniper handles better in the lighter weights than shooter.
