Trilene 100%

I like Cabela's no vis and Seagur Invisx. Also just do a search we have covered the topic ALLOT!! BTW Welcome to BR!!

I use Gamma or Trilene 100%....

Sunline FC Sniper

Berkley Trilene 100%

In the rare occasion that I buy fluorocarbon, I buy Trilene 100%.

Trilene or Stren 100% (They are the same thing, made in the same factory) or XPS Flouro for leader, I found its stronger and more abrasion resistant, but less manageable.

In the rare occasion that I buy fluorocarbon, I buy Trilene 100%.

I'm not a fluorocarbon fan at all but have been interested in giving it another chance.  I gave up on it after using Berkley Vanish, have a friend that swears by it but I just don't see it.  I usually use a co-polymer which suits me just fine.  I have been thinking about giving Sunline or Seaguar a try.

Seems the general masses use Trilene 100%.  I've only tried one kind, Vanish Transitions.  I like it, never had the problems I've heard others talk about.  Might start to notice some though after I try a few other kinds.

Currently using 15 lb Triple Fish on a couple of bait casters and its working well. I have not used any other lb test.

Cajun Flouro - Pleasantly surpised it performed superbly, but I can get the upper two for less.

I used to really like Vanish until I tried other lines.  My main complaint is that it handles so badly.  I didn't even realize it until I switched to P-Line.

BPS + KVD linc conditioner, zero problems on my baitasters

I have tried all kinds. Wasted alot of money and thrown many in the trash. BPS floro works best for me.

I use BPS floro for my baitcasters, a little stiff but strong & dependable and like the price. I use either Gamma or Trilene 100% on spinning reels, I found these lines to be more manageable than BPS which is important when using a spinning reel.

Seaguar Red Label or BPS XPS.

Really, Red Label is just as good as the BPS and its cheaper! :D

i bought trilene 100 % in 6# test and couldn't believe how thick the line was . i only have spinning out fits and fish ultra clear water so i bought it because of the clarity ,i liked the sensitivity  but because the water is so clear i am always paranoid with the fish being spooky and try to cast as far as i can ,the floourcarbon  stiffness seemed to cut my casting distance down so i replaced it mccoys mean green.

I only use it for leaders, so its Vanish for me.

I used to use Vanish for my leaders but it wouldn't hold knot strength for squat.  Quickly learned from others how crappy Vanish is.  Once I switched the problems went away.
