fluro coated lines are rubbish!! they dont last the distance,they are ok for a while but thats it!, you can cast with them yeah,but they dont sink as well or like i said last..their short life span aint worth the money..they start to go a bit crinkly not long after use! like i said ive used x-line for a long time and can hit 100yrds using the 14 or 15lbs (not sure which is which on my spools) ive seen this question on other forums and the tigerline is supposed to be the nuts? just type in tigerline on your search and it should take you to the site..its not cheap i know that, but its getting a good few rave reviews..but you cannot rate summink you've not used imo, but ive used both x-line and fluro coated lines and its my experience with both which sways my favour to 100% fluro and not the coated variety, i really dont care if sumone can cast 200yrds with a certain line, as i dont think that is a proper test..
