And the esp synchro, horrendous tow rope stuff.
are you talking about the loaded version ?
as THE NORMAL SUPERIOR ESP Syncro XT Line is a superb line !!!!......... it casts ok sinks well and is a very consistent line and I have been using it for a few years now cant fault it nothing better in mono IMHO

💯 agree with you Gerry. I have settled in this for a few years now and can't fault it at all. As you say ticks every box I need and never been left wanting in any situation, whether that be casting, sinking or abrasion resistance

Swapped from Syncro XT to Berkley CM90 and really rate this stuff, although seems hard to get hold of at the moment

I prefer the original version but a couple of years ago all I could get was the loaded. It is not as supple, and has to be cast out and reeled in first thing on every session to loose the memory coils but it does sink better and is as tough and strong as the original..it still on my reels now and has caught me loads of fish.. Would I buy it again, possibly not first choice but wouldn't be worried if I had to.

Correct me if Im wrong, but the guy is after the best SINKING mono.
Loads of lines listed in this thread that don't sink very well.

Korda touchdown is a good sinking line. It's like you're peeling it off the bottom reeling in. 20lb is very good line 👍

I tried CM90 in 12lb and is the best sinking mono I've come across. (for sinking)
Pro Gold (not Clear) and Touchdown next, in order. (Sinking properties) .
Cm90 has the most stretch out of the three.
ProGold has the least stretch; it's also the most wirey\twisty.
The ESP stuff that keeps doing the rounds here has more stretch and doesn't sink aswell as any of the above.

Last year i used Cm90 topline, since this year I use the Korda Tochdown and prefer it over CM90, sinks very well, strong on the knot, no kinks and casts further than the CM90.

I'm with you there - I'd take Touchdown over CM90.
Pro Gold is still my goto Mono though.
