    Old line, or line that has been in sun too long, gets very weak. On 2 different reels and rods, I doubt it is your equipment, unless you are using the same rod.
    Time to replace line. And maybe buy the line from a different place if the line is new to you.

    Can be caused by kinks in the line from bad backlashes as well. I agree that the only remedy is really to replace it.

    McCoy's is good stuff. You can get green or clear, but I don't think you can get fluorescent, in case you use a blacklight at night.

    This my guess, although I don't have this issue with mono near as much as flourocarbon.

    Almost any fresh line is good for a moving bait presentation. I use McCoy ultra clear for moving baits and Pline CXX for jigs and worms. The CXX is stiff but ultra abrasion resistant.

    But, there are a lot of good lines out there. Even trilene XL/XT and big game are good.
