I've purchased line from Walmart online, never had a problem with quality. Hopefully you'll get the 'level wound' spools, so much better than the other variations that are there now.

Invizx is good when its good, but when its not its useless. Bought a lot of 1000yd spools and got too many bad ones. Wound up with 3 completely useless spools and TW nor Seaguar will do anything about it. Had a spool of 20lb i could wrap around somethin and break with my hands. Wasted money. Ive made the switch to Sunline Sniper and havent had a single issue. Its smaller in diameter than Invizx, so you can step up a size. I still use Tatsu on my spinning reels but wont go back to Invizx again
They aint got hands, set the hook
Invizx is the only floro I use.
Anybody use abrazx ?
I would do yourself a favor and use Tatsu instead. It will save you money in the long run because you won't end up wishing you hadn't bought it. I used InvizX in various sizes for almost two years and found it to be very inconsistent from spool to spool, and even within the same spool itself. It is very temperamental when it comes to tying knots, is one of the stretchiest fluorocarbon lines on the market, and has lousy abrasion resistance when compared to some other fluorocarbon lines on the market.
If the price of Tatsu makes it a no go for you (and it shouldn't be, because Tatsu is worth every penny of its price) then personally I would use Sunline Sniper. InvizX handles a bit better than Sniper, but Sniper beats it hands down in every other aspect.
As far as how many reels you can fill with a 200 yard spool of Tatsu (or any other line) goes .... it depends on what I am using the rod for. If it's crankbait rods I can do two reels with 200 yards of line. Any of my other rods, I get 4 reels from one 200 yard spool. I use regular nylon mono as backing on all of my reels, regardless of what kind of line they have on them.
I use 20 down here and have excellent luck with it. Ocassionally crank with 15 or finesse fish with 15.
Sniper for me also
All my rods are spooled with InvizX, never had a problem .......

Been using Invisx for many years. It is good line. No problems with it.
InVizX has been my main line for years.
Question everything!
Invisx is all I use, mostly 20-25lb.
There was a time that I didn't fish but I cannot remember it.
I used to have a hard time with fluoro breaking all the time one cause is kinks from picking the occasional backlash. I now stretch my fluoro line out once every two weeks and add line conditioner and this helped me reduce a majority of my fluoro issues.

I have 4 bulk 1000 yard spoils. A spool of 8, 12,15, and 17. I’m going on 3 years and they are still half full. I back all my reels so don’t use as much line as I used to. If I have a rod that I notice seems to start to break or feel chafed I despoil it. I have only spoiled 6 if 20 rods so far this year, but my rods sit in locker out of sun and some only get pulled out a few times a year. My rods that get used a bunch are the ones that have been changed.
Seaguar is all I use. No problems or complaints.
Yes, have abrazx on all my baitcast setups (except topwater and heavy grass braid setups) and invizx on spinning. Been this way for about 9 years now with no issues with either on abrasion resistance or knot strength. The invizx has more stretch than abrazx but is also limper which works well for spinning. Abrazx is more abrasion resistant and stiffer for baitcast gear.

Ivizx is a great line and handles awesome, BUT it has too much stretch for me. Some will say all fluros stretch but that is not true. FC sniper is one of the lowest stretching fluros and so is Vicious. Pline makes two good fluros but is pricey. Not fluro clear
I tried red label and its junk. Not good abrasion resistance.
It is very good line and have used it for years.
