I have used P-Line FlouroClear in the past and it was ok, but I never liked
the way it delaminated after a day or two of fishing. I know tournament
anglers are supposed to change all their line before every tournament, but
I just can't bring myself to do that. That would be $150 bucks a
tournament. When the most I could win in some of the little fun series I
like to fish is about that much it becomes cost prohibitive. Anyway, I
pretty much decided not to try any more P-Line.

I normally use 12lb Seaguar Carbon Pro 100% pure flourocarbon line on my
main spinning rod for wacky rigging senkos. It works great, but after
fishing mono and braid for everything else that flouro seems stiff.

Saturday preparing for the Sunday Yuma Pro Am tournament I noticed my
wacky rig spinning rod was getting a little low on line. Alas! My spool of
12lb Seaguar was empty. I had a spool of 12lb P-Line 100% Flourocarbon
somebody had given me to try. I broke down and spooled up the rod with it.
I noticed when spooling it up that it felt smaller, and that it had a
different overall feel.

I don't know how it will hold up long term, but I definitely noticed it is
not as stiff as the same size Seaguar, and it fished really well all day
long. Well, not ALL day. I did flip on braid and topwater on mono part of
the day.

This line might bear some further investigation.

P.S. The best 8 lb I have tried so far is the Maxxima Flourocarbon. The
Seaguar broke way too easy in that size. Maybe I need to try the P-Line
next.

I went ahead and ordered some of their 8 lb to try. If its as good as the
Maxima 8lb then it may find a place on my shelf.
