Hey Roger,

I have the glow in the Dark stuff. I'll dig out the name later. I think it is a Stren line. Fairly think diameter for 30lb. Quite stiff as well. Once you break it in, it seems supple enough. I use it for boat fishing. Got a cracking deal on a 1000 yard spool at the Angling show last year.

I also have the invisible braid, looks excellent but I have only just started to use it.
