Guys looking for most limp Fluorocarbon for my jerkbait casting set up. Looking to use 10lb or 12lb test straight flouro.Since I believe Seaguar is the best brand for Flouro, I prefer one of Seaguars Line, But open to any suggestion. Please advice. Thank you in advance.

Tatsu is the easy answer to that question, especially if you're looking to stick with Seaguar.

That was easy.

Tatsu it is.. I personally like Invisx a little better with any treble hook bait, It has a bit more stretch .

Tatsu is lowest memory.  I find any of the low-memory fluorocarbons to be very springy, really want to be straight, and really want to jump off your spool.  

Seaguar's most limp fluorocarbons are their leader compositions, kind of by definition.  

Their nylon monos are all also more limp than any of their fluorocarbons.  

So I put InvizX at the limp end, and Tatsu at the low-line-memory end.

Ok here got interesting,  I wish we had Seaguar official to breakdown all the lines in detail. 

Now I cant understand how InvizX can be limper while Tatsu have less line memory, I taught if a line is limper, it has lower line memory as well.

I totally agree with this.

And perhaps my best example happens south of the border.

I've been fishing mono a whole heck of a lot longer than FC

(Decades as compared to just a few years)

Past several trips I've been using 20 & even 25lb Tatsu.

The class of resident bass there demands it. 

Honestly, it's about as close to mono as anything I've fished.

Manages & casts great (with Zero line conditioner, not needed IMO)

With the right gear, Sensitivity is sufficient & long range hooksets are effective.

( with Hefty swimbaits & 1 ounce Jigs)

Once I spool my reels for the trip, it is SO Nice, and a major confidence booster,

knowing my line is good to go and will never be a problem.

Has contributed to helping me catch several brutes out of some pretty gnarly bushes

& up out of wicked line eating trees.

The lighter 10 & 15 lb Tatsu that I use locally, offers all the same attributes.

I only use FC on casting gear. 

Amazon is routinely the best price on 1000 yd spools of 20lb -

(Wish Seaguar offered the 25 lb in bulk)

YMMV

I am using 10 and 12 lb Tatsu this year, only 2 outings to date.

Limp and FC is a oxymoron, FC is a high tensile high memory line period. The only attribute Tatsu may offer more reliable knot strength and that is why I am giving it another try out.

If you want a good casting line with less memory and stronger knot strength try Sunline Defier Armillo 11 lb. for jerk baits.

Tatsu is the answer to that.  For Jerkbaits, I use Invisx.
