Invisx or Super FC Sniper for use on MH crankbait rods (casting) and JWR leader material.  They are about the same price for a 660 spool where I am.  Any preferences?

Sniper is a little harder and less stretchy.  

It wouldn't be a proper post if I didn't suggest one you aren't looking at.  Daiwa J Flouro is pretty sweet too.

Sniper has served me well as a leader; thin, strong, and works well with fg/sdj knots.  I can see the manageability issues though as it coils pretty good on my 20-30' leaders.

I use Sniper for most everything, however I suggest you use neither. 

You’ll be better served using leader material specifically made for that purpose. 
 

Sniper and InvisX are great used as a main line as they are intended

Seaguar just came out with that new leader Pounce. Been meaning to get a spool and try it out.

Been testing that out on a GLX and Bantam combo.. 22 pound. Very good stuff so far.

That is what I would recommend for sure. 
It’s one of the best on the market and has been proven to be worth it.

How's the abrasion resistance on the J Flouro compared to sniper? Looking at 10lb, have to contend with zebra mussels and rock on deep current ridden marina harbors.  I retie often.

Why use FC? Maxima Ultra Green copoly 8# (.010D) or 10.# (.012D) has very high abrasion resistance and stronger knot strength, try a filler spool before buying bulk spools.

Less stretch and higher density

Stretch is equal higher density is correct.

I'm on Champlain and the St Lawrence.  Totally fine.  I'd say slightly harder than sniper

The highest abrasion resistant FC that I have found is Sunline Shooter. 
Diawa J Fluoro is close to Tatsu in performance. 
Consider Seaguar AbrazX for abrasion resistance, I have no experience with AbrazX only used Tatsu.
