Default Sufix Fluorocarbon

I saw a picture in a magazine of it, but I've never seen on the shevles. If it new, or just hard to find?

Anyone used it, or know where to get it?

Not that I know of. Have been searching for it too. I'm guessing it won't be on the shelves until spring.

It is new. They had it displayed at Icast recently.

Ok, now that it's out and available at most places, anyone tried the new Sufix FC?

I saw it at Gander Mtn the other night, but I have no use for it right now (and not enough spare cash)

It runs about the normal price for a FC line. About the same as Seaguar for the same amount of line. But after liking Seaguar so much, I don't feel the need to try something new.

I use it. I bought a 300 yd spool at Gander for $20. So far, it's the best flouro I've ever used. I trashed berkley professional 100% after using the Sufix

Berkley 100% is the only fluoro I use b/c it doesnt twist like the other stuff and it doesnt brake on the hookset

I haven't tried the TRilene 100% yet. Now I have three fluoro's I'd like to try. Sufix, BPS, and Trilene.

P-Line is the worst I couldnt get more than a day of fishing with it on a spinning rod, and it gets expensive fast when you are replacing flouro after every trip. it would spring off the reel and twist so bad I had to cut it off

Yep, hate p-line flouro, but their mono is good. As for suffix and bps they are both great, and I have yet to try trilene or suffix.

I use Suffix on all of my rods except my flippin stick. Works good for crankin , top water, and wormin. I used Trilene forever until I tried Suffix. I get it at Walmart around $9.00 a spool. I think the spool fills my B/C's 4-5 times. I don't take all of the old line off though, still got 1/2 the spools with the first line I had put on as a filler. Sure does save alot of line when it comes time to respool.

P-Line fluoro was the first I used, then Stren's. The p-line was alright, but no where near as good as Seaguar. The stren was ok as well. It's very abrasion resistant, but fairly stiff. Great for leaders.

i bought a 200 yard spool of the castable fluro today at gander mt for 20 bucks. i hope it was worth it. i went for seaguar abrazx but they didn't have any i hate settling for something but sufix has not let me down with the mono i use so maybe the fluro is just as good. i will let yall know after monday when i go fishing what i think

this stuff is great. it cast well, has low memory, and is tough. i was pitchin to submurged timber and only retied once after dragging a log in. i could have went on without retieing but i just could not risk it cause my fishing partner caught a 8 lber this morning with a tiki stick and it had me worried about seeing a fish that big then hearing snap cause of a log weaking my line.
