Yes I have also seen it in the Kmart stores here in brisbane although the stores I saw only had a few different poundages with 6lb being the lowest

I know Superlines can be expensive..But whatever you do...dont use the HAWK brand of fused line!

Its CRAP!!

Sorry dont know bout the Hercules, but I may be getting some next week!:cool:

Hercules from JW is actually made by Suffix. Spooled my lil shakespeare with it to try this weekend. Seems very close to fireline in looks, but perhaps a little fuzzier??

Will let you guys know how I go!

Ive got the 6lb on one of my rods. I have used it a few times with a few good catches and it seems to wearing allright so far..
Some fluffing is happening but its nothing to worry about it so far..
See how it wears the next few fishing Expeditions

My line is still holding up quite well. Caught a heap of flathead on sp's and a few bream on *Bows head* Bait. The only thing that its doing is that the fluro yellow colour is now a dull yellow colour

If braided or fuse lines start to fluff, you should have a good look at the guides on the rod. Mostly it is caused by runners. Max

Surely 2 month old Fuji guides shouldnt be fluffing braid?
