    Seaguar Invisx, it is softer than the red label. Less memory. It says so on the box!
    And from experience, it does well. if that gives you trouble, play with your brakes on the reel till you get it right.

    Trilene 100% is what I usually use. It's my favorite do fat. And inxisx has a bit more stretch, but it is softer and may cure his over runs on the spool. But then again, I haven't used any line conditioner. That may be the way to go.

    At $20 a spool for 200 yards, I'll stick with mono. There was a time not long ago when there weren't many options and everyone was just fine with it.

    I just started using the red label and have had trouble with the 10 lbs breaking. I am going back to P line Flouro. I had good luck with it.

    The day I switched back to mono was the day I started consistently catching fish again. I HATE braid and flouro with a passion but when it's a necessary evil for Senko's Sufix castable flouro is ok. If I had to choose, a low stretch mono like Sufix Superior would be my one and only.
