    It's mislabeled. It's at least 8# and probably closer to 10#.

    How can you tell that? I never heard of this line before. I can't see any line on the spool to check the size.

    If you look at the label, the diameter is .010" or .26mm (easier to read on the LF website.) Other manufacturers call that 8 or 10# line. Sufix and Seaguar are two examples:

    Castable Invisiline™100% Fluorocarbon

    Seaguar Product Details - Red Label

    My eyes aren't that good. I can see where it says 6# test. We do use some Suffix. Thanks.

    No it's not, we've been through this haven't we!!! here are the most popular crappie lines on the market.
    Vicious hivis 6lb--- .010
    Suffix elite hivis 6lb --- .010
    Stren original hivis 6lb---.009
    Berkley trilene 6lb---.009
    Mr crappie hivis---.0098
    LakeFork fluorotex hivis 6lb---.010
    The average parameter for 6lb mono is between .009 and .010, the fluorotex is a mono wrapped in fluorocarbon, is hivis, low memory, and we've caught a ton of fish on it in the last month and its now our primary line.
