i got some seaguar invisx 8lb today. this would be the first time ill be using flouro. i really hope that i didnt just waste $20. i plan on putting this on my rapsody rod with a president for dropshots and shakeyheads.

Very manageable line if you can deal with the stretch.

My last time out last year was my first time for using Fluoro, 10 lb. Spiderwire 100% because it was the cheapest at Dick's Sporting Goods. Didn't get a hit on that rod, so I'll have to wait until later this year to see how well I like it after catching a few fish. Mine is on a Fuego/Cumara casting combo.

Be sure to post back and let us know how you liked it.

You're going to love the increased sensitivity compared to mono. It does stretch a bit for fluoro (that's the trade off for it not being too stiff) but it still stretches less than mono. Great choice.

I think you will find the InvizX is a great fluorocarbon for spinning tackle.

For baitcasting gear, AbrazX is another outstanding fluoro.

I might be different but I like invizx for the exact reason it has that stretch for what I use it for and that is what i use drop shotting.

I have not seen any loss or failure to hook up as a result, matter of fact with it I hardly ever miss.

I realize that stretch isn't always a good thing, but I can say that for what the OP intends to use it for, the stretch won't hurt at all.

I use 6# Invizx because my water conditions allow me to get away with that light of a line.

Sure, a litte stretch won't hurt. But you won't see me fishing with a rubber band.

wont see me either and i can already tell that it has way less stress than mono

You sure?

lol well if that chart is right it is a much higher stretch line than mono

I did an lab for my physics class in which i tested line stretch under loads of 5, 10, and 15 lbs and got some interesting results.

Results, from least stretchy to most:

1. P-line Cxx copoly
   
2. Berkley big game Mono
   
3. Seaguar Red Label fluoro
