Sunline basic fc vs Sunline sniper

creek bandit · #1 23-01-2013, 12:54 AM

Im setting up my spare spool on my tierra 1500 with straight through fluro for the early trout season. I need 4lb due to the size of the fish in destinations. Love using my sunline so what is going to be the better line for casting light plastics and lures up to 4g. Will be running it on my gen black itchy twichy which has micro guides if this means anything.

Sniper is the better product....they do have a new one out called light game which comes in half pound increments....

I used both last year. I found Basic was cheaper. Sniper had less memory.

Very keen to try the new light game FC, just can't seem to find a local supplier.

FC sniper for me is much better than Basic FC, Sniper I feel has better abrasian resistance, less memory/coiling and.....has a cooler name!

Sweet , thanks guys. Looks like sniper it is. I have 6lb sniper that I use as leader for whiting and bream. Im happy with it and it holds a knot.
