I have been usingthe P-Line CX on my spinning gear for some time now and I cannot figure out what you are talking about when it comes to memory. I have had 0 problems with memory from P-Line CX. This weekend I fished with Vince(theblankslate) on the Delta and he talked me into spooling up some of his 15lb Yozuri. Let me tell you, that stuff is strong. It performed really well for me. I am gonna stick with it for now.
