Trilene is a good older classic line however Japanese tech lines these days blow trilene away in nearly every aspect except cost.
Seaguar Tatsu has DSF technology combining the latest in fluorocarbon technology combining resins that provide both sensitivity and abrasion resistance.
Tatsu means dragon in Japanese and the line is just as tough on the outside while supple to tie smooth knots
Lb for lb easier to use than braid, Virtually invisible and considered the apex of floro carbon Tech.
Actually saves your arm strength as the line flows so freely and smooth with no memory or bird nest issues
properly filled on your reel.
#15 lb Tatsu will hold nearly anything short of a great white out of the Surf.
#25lb almost unfair on huge mean fish that eat up cheaper lines like trilene.
