    Not currently but Sunline is coming out with one here in several weeks I've heard.

    Sunline flipping flouro - colored waxy marking every few feet, not a fan
    k9 flouro (not much different than a good mono)
    Stren 100% flouro - if you can find it
    Spiderwire glo vis braid - not flouro but strong and sensitive
    Pline - copoly, best option left

    Stren made a fluorescent"Fluorocast". I didn't like it at all. Line diameter compared to other brands was bigger, pound for pound and the line memory wasn't very good.

    I used some blue flourocarbon out of Japan for a couple of years but it's been dis-continued as I can't find it anymore.

    K9 makes a hi vis fluro that is visible with a black light. My friend uses K9 and likes it so far.

    Power pro has a fluorescent braid they just came out with but the best option for fluorescent fluorocarbon was stren but the sunline flippin has so much memory. I’ve considered going braid to mono leader on my night baits
    I,d rather be tried by 12 than be carried by 6

    I use 6lb K9 on some of my Crappie setups. I will tell you it’s super limp (handles better side by side than 6 lb InvisX), which is awesome. But it does not fish like a pure fluorocarbon, from a sensitivity standpoint, in my opinion—my guess is that’s because of the additives they use for the handleability.
