They'll be a 1001 answers pal all depends on what you require from the line in my opinion or what type of line you prefer.

Top ones that come up regular

Cm90
Syncro Xt ( not the loaded version )

Both very good , strong , sink and cast well

If you're just wanting a decent all round mono then Synchro XT in 15lb is hard to beat IMO.

One is XT loaded and the other is XT
Loaded comes in a red box
XT in green I believe

The other colours are from changing logo/rebranding

I used to use and love shimano tech in black 12lb..as this has changed / been discontinued i spooled up with 15lb synchro xt last year, and so far so good..ill be sticking with this line for the foreseeable.

Is the loaded Synchro not better at sinking, have heard mixed reviews of this one.

I've only got a single spool of technium left so am also looking to switch - previous threads on here seem to suggest that cm90 is a v.good line. Can't recall anyone having any bad (or not brilliant) feedback.
I've order a spool and eargerly awaiting it's arrival.
