Fireline has degraded a little in the last few years. Originally it had a slick, black coating that cast a mile, even with spincast reels. The process has changed to produce the line and the gray surface of the line puts more friction on the guides and begins to fray over all of its casting length after a month. It seems softer than the original line. I still prefer it to Spider Line Fusion or Spiderline Spider Wire for sensitivity, no memory, and no stretch. <br><br>
