What is the difference between Super FC Sniper and just FC Sniper?
If there some, which is better for spinning setup?

Good question. I am hoping someone can give us some input on this . . .

I have only used the Super Flouocarbon Sniper and it is the real deal on spinning reels. I just put it on all of my cranking rods because I was that impressed with the 6 and 8 pound on my spinning reels. Hopefully the 10,12, and 16 pound handles just as good.

Thanks for the suggestioms guys/gals. :D I might go ahead getting the BPS XPS fluoro since there will be a "buy 2, get 1 free" offer on the Spring Fishing Classic coming up. ;)

Use thin braid with a fluoro leader for much better performance on a spinning reel.

For straight fluoro, I've tried Invizx. That line is not abrasion resistant enough for where I place my lures. I would definitely try Sunline Sniper, I had great luck with 10lb sniper on my Curado 50 last year. MUCH more abrasion resistant than even Abrazx.

#7 Sniper FC is second for me now.
How is Biwako different than Sniper, other than being more expensive? It has to be very sensitive, or I will not fish it.

Been using P-Line soft fluoro in 6lb on my 2500 reel best for me so far.
