Im looking to change my mainline and have narrowed it down to these three. Has anyone used all three and how do they compare. Are the more expensive two worth twice the money of the hyper sensor? Lots of people seem to rate the XT synchro but I cant find much on the Exocet on here. Has anyone used Exocet and had a good experience with it?

Have used all three, exocet and hyper sensor are prestretched hence they are thinner for the same breaking stain as the synchro. This makes them better for distance casting but they don't sink as well, neither are they as abrasion resistant.
If distance isn't an issue I would go for the synchro, if it is go for one of the others.

Synchro is good stuff I use the non loaded in 15lb been very happy with it from edge fishing to 130 yards out can't fault it 👍🏼

Cheers that's helpful. Is the Exocet much less visible in the water than the others?. What colour synchro XT would you suggest?

What colour do you use? Have you used hyper sensor and if so is the synchro XT justifiably more expensive?

I would say visibility is roughly the same between all three, perhaps the hyper sensor slightly darker in the original, not used newer gunmetal.

Hyper is very good and the xt, not used the exocet

I didn't like Hyper Sensor so I binned it, and reverted back to normal Sensor.

Poor for knotting. May have been a duff spool I suppose.

Out of those the esp is the only one I'd even consider using .

What about technium black or cm90?

Not a fan those either. People rave about cm90 but I found the abrasion resistance not very good when compared to my favourite gr60 which is a shame as other than that I was very impressed with it

Looks like no one has cm90 in stock now anyway

To be fair even though its breaking strains are massively under rated I don't think that there's a readily available line that comes close to GR60 in terms of abrasion but obviously not tried everything on the market.
