I've tried them all. Sniper is the best bang for your buck out there. 

I agree with this, however bang for buck and fluorocarbon shouldn't be used in the same sentence. You get what you pay for here. Tatsu is the bees knees imo.

Shooter is my favorite, but best budget would be P-line 100% fluoro. The P-line runs a little big for it's test rating so you have to go a little lighter in the rating, but all P-line is that way.

Sniper is the best all around flouro , the line is very strong , not to much memory , and minimal stretch . you really can't ask for much more , Sunline makes the two best flourocarbon lines with Sniper & Shooter in my opinion , as i do not like stretchy lines . if you do like lines with a lot of stretch , check out seaguar lines ..

 

Tatsu or bust imo.

As WRB suggested, beauty is in the eye of the beholder.

I have used Tatsu fluorocarbon, and it is unquestionably high-grade fluoro (I'll endorse that statement).

Problem is, I was already a devout proponent of braided line so my tolerance for 'line-stretch' was quashed!

I kid you not when I say, before setting the hook with Tatsu fluorocarbon,

I found myself taking a step backwards to compensate for line-stretch   :sad3:  (not good)

Red lable is good. Stiff. But good. Trilene 100% is also good.   I love tatsu so much I just bought 3000 yards. Should be good for the next 5 years on line

3000 or 300?? 3000 is like 800 dollars worth of line

So youre implying ive Shared false information. OK fair I guess some fisherman are pathological liars.  Im really not flaunting or flashy. And certainly not fond of others who lie to create a favorable self image.     I can only afford rent, and tatsu cause I shop at Ross,  and wear 7 dollar out dated hurley shirts that didn't make the cut at dillards hehe.

You should accidentally cut off 15 feet then trip and drop it into an envelope and mail it to me by accident!
