I use seaguar ace hard in 23lb, not sure if this was it but it's by far the best flouro I have ever used for hooklink. no steaming required,run it through your fingers or a firm tug on two hook pullers....about £17 for 50m spool

Rigmarole CamH20 - the only fluorocarbon worth using IMO!

Depends what your using it for
10-15lb for long Barbel hooklinks / 15-20lb for Carp hooklinks / 25lb for leaders, stiff booms & chods etc

Interested, Andy. Of course, here in the US they don't market Ace Hard Fluoro.
This appears to be the US version

Any thoughts on whether it looks similar ( I'll probably invest in a spool, like the idea of not needed to steam.....)

this seems to be alot different, the 23lb I use is .37, your stuff seems alot thicker and more of a leader...if ts cheap try a spool of the 20lb,you never know it may be ok
