I tryed this Gamma line this year for the first time and I will change over to all Gamma line from now on!  This line is the best line I have ever used,hands down. And I did buy the Gamma Flor.carbon and it is a bit $$$$ but a great line. Just my two cents worth. :)

jeez i was starting to think I was the only one. gamma is the best thing since sliced bread.

Been using it exclusively for 2 years now

Been using it this year and have no complaints,truly a great line !

Gamma Copolymer is pretty good, as is the Fluorocarbon.  The copolymer is priced where it should be, the fluoro is waaay overpriced...just see where it stacks up against its cheaper (much cheaper) competitors in Tackle Tour's fluorocarbon shootout.  

Abrasion resistance...

I have been very pleased with the Gamma line.  Definitely worth the $ in my opinion.

I haven't tried the Gamma Fluoro line, but the 17# Gamma has cost me 2 bass that were 13+ lbs this month by breaking off in open water, back to XT the old reliable.

:)

I tried Gamma copolymer on 3 spinning reels, 8 & 10 lb test. After fighting birds nests and uncoiling off the reel for a few days on a fishing trip, I took it all off and went back to good old XL. Which works just fine.

I am not trying to be a punk, but maybe you put it on wrong.I use it on spinning and bait casters with no problem. I ues 8 or 10 on spinning and 10 to 20 on my bait caster.It to me is a very strong line with little or no memory.You could have a kink in your line that it broke. I always check my line for kinks or cuts.

I use Gamma Co-polymer 8 lb on my spinning reels and 12 lb on my baitcaster. I have had zero problems with this line. It is strong, good abrasion resistance, has got a little stretch to it, but not se much were ya can't deal with it, is easy to find, and is priced right. Can't beat it in my opinion. I dn't use fluorocarbon line very much as most of the areas I fish are stained waters anyway. I'll use fluorocarbon in very clear water and thats about it.

I have used Gamma, Yo-Zuri Hybrid Ultrasoft, and P-line CXX co-polymer lines. I rank them 1) Gamma, 2) Yo-zuri, 3) P-Line. Gamma and Yo-Zuri were pretty close to erformance wise, but Gamma is way easier for me to find, and is a little cheaper.
