I am not sure what it is but it works

I don't know the process there are so many new lines out but evolution works. Its a copolymer and I think it is a copolymer coated with fluorocarbon. Long story short it has a lot of the benefits of fluorocarbon but not the big drawbacks. It casts a lot better than fluorocarbon and doesn't have the memory of fluorocarbon. I got my first spool for free at a tournament give away and have been using it ever since for my spinnerbaits and anytime I want a tough line for casting. It does stretch some but nothing like mono and the big thing is it is stronger than mono and is more abrasion resistant. Its kind of a compromise between mono and fluorocarbon line. Its not high either so its not a problem putting it on several rods if your on a tight budget. But one thing I learned is everybody likes different lines I know some guys who only thrown braid, mono etc. But I think your better off adapting and even the most stubborn pros have finally learned and started throwing the newer lines. The big problem is keeping them straight and learning what you like. But let me help you benefit from my free line and take my advice this is nice all around line. The only drawbacks are it does stretch a little and doesn't float but other than that you can use on a lot of different rods.

12 and 25 lb

I have used both the 12 and 25 pound lines and have had nothing but success with them. I crank with the 12 and flip/pitch with the 25. This line has been excellent for both techniques. Castability is excellent with the 12. I can throw DD's and Dt16's a mile. I also throw smaller swimbaits (Giron, King Shad)with this line, and have landed some really nice fish (up to 6 in Indiana) with no problems. With the 25, I have very good control with it and it seems to have pretty good sensitivity.
With both of the lines, strength is not an issue. If anything, these lines feel stronger that what they are labeled. These lines do seem to be a little stiff, which I don't mind for pitching or cranking.
I will continue to buy this line in the future.
