Any recommendations for the best out there, sinking and easy for threading. Tia.

Rig marole freefall tubing, not the cheapest at £12.99 for 3x1 metre lengths but it's all I use now because it's so easy to thread even with wet line.

I use hls products Tungsten tubing, it's £3.75 for 2m or £14.50 for 5 x 2m. As well as being cheap as chips, it's really heavy. Quite easy to thread, the key is to have the tubing and line dry. If the tubing is wet, forget it.

Only downside is all three colours are a little dark.

As said the rigmarole is by far the best on the market, very expensive but worth it. I buy the pack with 5 bits 600mm long I think they are. Just don't try to cut it because it's a bloody nightmare to deal with once cut

Far easier to thread if you pop it in a tub of warm water first, than when dry.
Good stuff, the HLS.

Nothing comes close to Rigmarole. Threads like a dream even when wet. It's stainless steel, camouflaged and lays flat. It is expensive compared to the normal tubing but when you buy the 5 pack it lasts a long time.
It's a yes from me..

I bought some for a France trip as tubing was a requirement I.e no leaders but on receipt did not use them as I thought the colours are a bit in your face.
Are you sure?
