...About something Seaguar Fluorocarbon fans are already aware of and something those who have had bad experiences with FC should see.

FCs are NOT created equal. And when someone picks one of the "bad" ones that has a lot of memory or is very stiff (those two usually go together), it kinda leaves a bad taste in their mouth. I have a buddy who absolutely refuses to use FC, and one who almost swore off it after using the steel-wire-like Trilene 100% Fluoro.

Anyways, After my 2yr old Seaguar InvisX snapped in one of Those backlashes last time I was fishing, I decided to respool it today. By the way, if not for that break, I don't doubt that that Seaguar InvisX would've lasted me through its third season.

So I pull out my spool of backup 12lb Seaguar InvisX that has been sitting in my garage fishing cabinet since I bought it at TW's Bass Master Classic sale... LAST YEAR'S Bass Master Classic sale.

I strip the old line off the reel, open up the box and pull half a dozen feet off the spool only to find that it's still as limp and memory free as a brand new spool. And it's been sitting for a year. I know it's not a great pic, but here is one to show you what it looks like. If I didn't know any better, I'd think that was a brand new, high end mono. But rest assured, it's FC.

P.S. I'm not associated with Seaguar in any way. I just believe in their products and will continue to buy and recommend them.
