Haven't used it yet Clay but its a different formula to fc rock. This stuff is a dedicated leader material which has better abrasion properties than standard fc rock...

I'm very skeptical about this 'new leader'. I'm not skeptical about the actual product, but rather the marketing department.

I'm a massive fan of FC rock, and use it exclusively. Is this just a way for Sunline to cash in on marketing spin, associating it with Bream, and being able to sell the same product, for double the price?? 100m of FC rock for $19.95, which is outstanding value, vs 50m of FC Bream for $19.95.

Everyone knows Australia is treasure island, and manufacturers, importers etc all take the piss.

My thoughts exactly. Hopefully standard FC Rock will still be available.

Agree 100%, all you have to do is put on those two magic words (Bream and Tournament) on the packaging and you can charge double or get twice as less.

I agree with all the above comments, as I only use standard FC Rock and will continue to do so. But I do have friends that swear by V Hard and I think this new 'bream special' fits between the standard FC Rock and V Hard.

It may not have as hard a coating as the V hard but I am guessing it won't be as supple as the standard FC Rock either.

I guess this is how they justify selling it.
