I'm ready to try a different fluorocarbon. Help.

I've been using Berkley 100% Fluorocarbon line for pitching a jig and plastics. 20 lb line almost always. Although the line is very strong, holds good knots and is abrasion resistant, I keep getting those little loops in my spool while pitching. Not full blown back lashes, mind you, but the beginning of a backlash that causes me to have to turn around and make a long cast to remove. Annoying and time consuming. I've tried KVD and Reel Magic line conditioner to no avail.

Recommend to me a 20 lb Fluorocarbon line that you think would be more supple than the Berkley line and that wouldn't almost backlash as much when pitching a jig. Thanks.
