Yes sir. They just offer them in smaller packages because flouro can get pricey. Seagaur in the red and blue spools are good stuff.

I found this on line:
Fluorocarbon leader material is SUPER refined for Super low visiablity under water. The leader material is manufactured to have the almost the same refactive index as water. Fluorocarbon line isn't. The line is cheaper to make.

Thanks, FinC..., your input is always a strike, no pun intended.
Well, after several hours making phone calls, I was able to track down a certain manufacturer’s service center in California. Thankfully, they agreed to send out my needed parts. These were left over...
You would think I would know this!
