    I use it. I like it. As long as I don't use it for any flipping it works flawlessly. I've never found a Fluorocarbon that can hold up to my hooksets. Never had an issue for any moving baits.

    I haven’t used it in a few years. I went away from it because the memory was so bad on it even after using a line conditioner. Sunline is my favorite though it is more expensive so I just stock up when I can get it on sale

    the "elite" vicious line is good line comparable to sunline which i use.
    You should know that in bee tending if you don't shut your trap the bees will get out.

    I haven't used their mono or flourocarbon line, but the no-fade braid is absolutely awesome! I've been using it the last two years and haven't had to respool once due to color loss. It is pricey, but it never frays, hasn't broke on me once, and doesn't dig in on the spool. It's all I use for braid now and I don't see me changing to anything else anytime soon.

    Their regular fluoro, at least the stuff they had 3-4 years ago, is garbage. Tossed that stuff out and haven't bought any since. I've heard great things about the no fade braid and their new top level fluoro, but after my bad experience with the lower end stuff and the fact that their other options cost as much or more than other brands I have more confidence in, I won't buy it.

    Worst fluoro I ever tried. Not only was it stiff but it seemed much thicker than other comparable lines.

    I use the copolymer when I don't have any yozuri.
    No problems at all.
